Reader Discussion: Will News Of NSA/CIA Snooping Change Your Gaming Habits?
I don’t expect that many of our readers are hardened terrorists that are plotting something nefarious (just a few of you). Nevertheless, this morning’s confirmation that the NSA and CIA have been aggregating and analyzing data from World of Warcraft, Xbox Live, and other services might give you pause.
From our past coverage, we’ve had comments from those that are outraged. We’ve also had people share that since they aren’t doing anything wrong, there isn’t a reason for concern.
Now that we have a better idea of how the United States government collects information in these games, will you be changing your habits? Let us know what you think of the news and what it means for how you’ll be gaming in the future.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
