    Well. It’s required for downloading Unreal Engine for development. Not really sure about spyware.

        Here’s some info about the spyware that they had in Epic Games that was allegedly “fixed”

        https://www.eurogamer.net/epic-responds-to-accusations-its-launcher-accesses-steam-data-without-permission

        You can sell access to your PC for the free games from Epic if you choose to. I choose not to install their garbage app, because I have plenty of other games and I don’t need their free bait.

        Once trust is lost, it’s hard to get back.

            All it took last time was Tencent to say jump to their asset.
