Facebook essentially did that by allowing friends to see basically "all" your information that you put on it (I recently deactivated my account because of recent issues). I think CCP is trying to do the same thing...which although I see workarounds by changing standings, it's not really for EVE.
I know CCP is trying hard to get people to use it, and hopefully they will listen to some of the feedback and offer ways to secure your information. By the way, this is my signature.

Since a large part of Eve for me happens in the email interface, and various out of game tools and services, I can certainly see myself doing all this without even logging on with Eve-gate available.
Hopefully that means more intensive pew pew, when I am logged on to the game client.

Originally by: Vaerah Vahrokha I HATE opt outs, for whatever pretend reason they are presented for.
I am filing a petition against forced opt-out to the European Parliament in this moment and asking for a revision of:
EU Directive 2002/58/EC Directive 2002/58/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 July 2002 and subsequent Directive 2003/58/EC and Amending Council Directive 68/151/EEC
VV, you don't have a legal leg to stand on. You don't own anything, and the game is provided as a service. You opted in by paying your subscription and/or buying the game. Seriously, the same kind of twisted logic could be used to declare that PVP in Counter Strike should be opt in. I opt in only to dualie duels, of course.

I'll use it.
I dislike that it shares any information automatically without your permission to start with but I've reviewed that issue and what is shared by default is of no concern to me. Measures have been taken, so to speak.
However, the ability to access email, contacts, and calendar from outside the game will help me greatly in organizing game events ahead of time so that when I do finally have time to log in and play I should actually get more flight time in.

CCP should:
1) Read the worldwide wall of flames off prominent information sites (IE ZDNet) thrown on Facebook's "fancy" privacy concept and how Facebook owners are being pushed into improving privacy over there.
2) Make the product so good that everyone want to use it, not ninja force people into it, without them even knowing they are.
3) At least send an in game warning about the implications of EvE Gate and how to opt out of it. It still kicks military / months off people in the groin, but at least it saves many others.
I of course already reset everything but I am thinking for the others, those (and I have a dozen EvE friends in the situation) who won't have a chance to fix their stuff as ATM they can't play, much less read the forum.

I don't own anything in both, I get the same effect in both and I get the harassing effect on *me, the RL dude* not an avatar. I still pretend *I* am in my property.

Something tells me this may well reveal a few undercover spy alts from big alliances.
I personally won't use Eve gate... if they are implementing all this crap then there is no excuse not for implementing the idea of being able to alter your skill queue out of game.

And one forum for corp, and one for alliance.

That data mining bot sure must be popular, since apparently he is set +10 by a large section of the EVE community. Otherwise it can get nothing.
Now if some people did set "him" blue for some reason (or had him in their corp) I suppose (if someone actually took the time to make the bot work) that it might capture their contact list, but unless the people on that list also have him set +10 he can mine no further.
Frankly, you'd be far more effective creating a bot that captures the names of the people passing through Jita local. ===== If you go to Za'Ha'Dum I will gank you. |

You are aware that they're opting you in to a game feature which might reveal in game information right? Let me know when they opt you in to putting your home address on the internet via eve-gate.
Originally by: Jhagiti Tyran I don't see orange or my land line provider publishing my digitally stored contact information without my permission so why the hell is it acceptable for any other kind of service provider to do it?.
Let's be clear: You own nothing about this game, and neither do I. If they wanted to publish everything at all about your character, you'd have no legal grounds for complaint. None. Now if they go publishing your home address/email address/whatever you might be able to complain.
But this is a game feature.

Why are you blindly defending this? cant you see why many people see this as a breech of player trust in CCP? because what could be next? publishing our chatlogs perhaps? or recording conversations on EVE voice? by your argument they would have the legal right to do this and while I am never going to get into a :internet lawyers: argument I do not think they have the right to do this because who you choose to socialize or speak with in a game should not be made public without permission just because it happens to be on CCP servers.
By your logic a mobile phone service provider have the right to publicly publish a list of everyone a customer texts or calls when in reality they need a court order to even show the police any logs.
And in any case if CCP do have this right we need to consent to this by agreeing to the terms and conditions presented in the EULA so on patch day if players do not accept the new revised EULA will that automatically exclude their data from being published? (and from logging into the game in the process ofc)

According to the argument you made about CCP owning every single players social activity record its not different at all its just a different level of privacy invasion.

Lets go back a few posts to one of your earlier statements:-
Originally by: Liang Nuren You don't own anything, and the game is provided as a service. You opted in by paying your subscription
Its true the in game content is internet spaceships but in reality CCP provides a service in return for a subscription and this makes CCP a service provider, who you decide to socialise with is not in game content and should not be disclosed without the subscribers permission.

What makes you think that the EULA needs to be updated to allow this? What part of the EULA, specifically, forbids Evegate?
Subscribers who currently play the game agreed to the terms and conditions based on the content at the time they consented to the EULA, if players do not agree to the terms and conditions related to the new content (EVE gate) should they be subjected to the consequences of that new content, namely the disclosing of social records? I don't believe they should.

Originally by: Jhagiti Tyran yes you are your just posting "CCP owns your soul" and not even just slightly thinking about how it might be wrong.
No... I said nothing about your soul. I said that they owned the data on their server that's related to your in game characters. Do you deny this? Also, I was extremely critical of EveGate in the initial roll out on sisi. It was a bit too revealing.... but I wouldn't worry about such things now that the major concerns have been addressed.
Quote: According to the argument you made about CCP owning every single players social activity record its not different at all its just a different level of privacy invasion.
I think the argument could be made that kind of data is more closely aligned with data transmitted over IM networks. I think its a totally different level of thing because one thing we're talking about releases data strictly of use in game, while another has an extremely high likelihood of containing data that could be used for nefarious purposes out of game. Even still, I would probably have no recourse unless it contained very specific kinds of data.
On this note, I don't see you flaming Chribba for releasing an entire week's worth of chat logs?

Oh, better get rid of killmails and corp tickers on the forums too eh? Look, there's already tons of data out there for anyone that cares to look. You can ***** and moan all you want to about it, but ultimately they've given you the tools to take advantage of this in a way that both delivers the benefits and doesn't unnecessarily expose "your" data.

I asked you to point to a specific clause of the EULA that prohibits Eve Gate or anything like it. Obviously, you can't do that. Thus, you quite likely don't need to sign a new EULA. But feel free to quit, and don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

You don't see me flaming anyone at all I am just presenting my opinion in a clear mature way please show me where I have insulted, swore or or resorted to ad hominem attacks. I have not posted an opinion on whatever Chribba is supposed to have done because I dont know what happened but it does not really have any relevance to to this discussion as Chribba is not CCP.
But as you bring up the big C it seems he is also against the default "opt in" setting for EVE gate.
Originally by: Liang Nuren But feel free to quit, and don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
Also where do I say I am quiting? I just said that people who do not agree should be not subjected to it, personally I will turn every feature in EVE gate off that I can and never use it again. Regarding the possible amendments to the EULA in every major patch or expansion CCP have given players the option to refuse or agree to it both when you install the patch and login the first time after installation I don't see them not doing the same this time around.

All I am going to say about this EVE gat stuff. Is look interesting and I see alot of people flaming with no bases!
It's sharing in game info! not sharing RL life info and people talking there could be legal action is a complete moron!
CCP owns all the info of toons! not you! Also using the logic to phone number to be made public is dumb as well. I mean phone books? I get calls from companys and they said they get it from phone books O.o I can't do much about it other i have to pay to hide my dam number!
How about Research and think before posting because the crap I see about this is Embarrassing!

I noticed how for some people you are not meant to be free, nor to have an opinion deviating from the "groupthink right opinion". If you do, you are meant to quit and / or do seppuku.

And? Do principles change just because applied to less important things?

What evil can do an email or a SMS? Little? Regardless, some countries have laws dealing even with these things. Are those laws overkill? Maybe, but they are still here.

In theory, if I refuse the EULA (that WILL be shown and required to be "signed") I should become unable to further play the game (fair) but as consequence of the denial, the new unsolicited features should not be activated either. Wanna bet with me that this won't be the case?

Social networks disgusts me as it's my firm belief that they're used only by complete losers or outright ret_ards, so I wasn't planning to use EVE-Gate, obviously. However, moronic opt-out decision ccp comes up with (well can't blame them this exact time as it's what they always do) apparently forces me to pollute myself by using it once - to shut down all possible access to my ingame information. 'Tis sad.
