Based on the provided search results, here’s a summary of the concerns surrounding NetEase and Chinese spyware:

Data Harvesting: NetEase, a Chinese internet giant, has been accused of harvesting user data, including personal information, from its games and services. This has raised concerns about potential espionage and data breaches.
Spyware Allegations: Some users have reported finding spyware-like behavior in NetEase’s games, including Once Human, which has led to accusations of intentional data collection and potential backdoors for Chinese authorities.
Tencent Connection: NetEase’s parent company, NetEase Games, has ties to Tencent, another Chinese tech giant with a history of data harvesting and alleged ties to the Chinese government. This has raised concerns about potential data sharing and surveillance.

that's china for you.. making crap cash cow games with no longevity that look good on the outside but no soul on the inside, only to try to milk you of every penny and of course spy on you.. always the same story because they cannot escape the allegations, every time... cause it's all true

Tencent also owns 9% of elite dangerous... doesn't stop me playing that game, this one does that perfectly well.

Of course, nobody complains about the US government spying on you through any means it deems legal... including software, some of which may very well include the operating system you are using.

Convince me there are no "hand shaking" going on.

I still recall the president himself calling out Apple as "unpatriotic" just because they refused to unlock an iPhone because Apple values the privacy of their customers. Especially when that customer hasn't been tried in court yet.

But if you defy the US government with moral values.. then that's what you sometimes get.

Everything is data harvesting from the time you wake up till you go to sleep. From your favorite food to life style everything everywhere is always watching and gathering.

Not really, they track your sleep cycles also with smart watches. So most are tracked and logged 24/7.

ps. Complaining about this games privacy is funny, when at the same time people gladly use tiktok and such.
