I think so they are pretty famous, its asking for permission because it has to read your deep hardware every launch

Will see when the law passes. The biggest red flag is when CPU-Z asks if you want to upload stats, etc. While it may not seem like a big deal, people really need to be careful when uploading they're personal computer specifications. MSIAfterburner/MSIKombuster does this too. The fact of the matter is there are people and bots, looking for high powered systems in which to install crypto miners.

I'm not worried about that.

CPU-Z is an institution. It's been around for a very, very long time. The upload option is purely for verifying overclocking results for their scoreboard, it's not necessary and you don't need to use it.

It's a website that stocks software tools for fixing PC problems. Like CPU-Z, HWMonitor and DDU. All of which are important and very useful for fixing a broken PC.
