Scum? You're trusting hundreds of companies with your data everyday already. Redshell is regulated by EU as a data processor just like these other services.

Lack of transparency? Go check out redshell.io right now and see how they open up about everything they do pretty damn clearly.

Multiple devs who use redshell announced its integration in patch notes. What more do you want?

An explicit opt-in when said devs made the integration, and the game dev to not send tracking data be default.

Not expect every user to read all the patch notes go to a third party website and fill out an opt out form, and then pray the third party to honour your request. This is slightly different from expecting a game dev to do so - tracking is not their sole business model after all

Actual, prominent notification, not something hidden in the patch notes.

Facebook is regulated as a EU data processor too. And look what that's done (very little so far.)
