To me this looks like deceiving the customer. The advertisement for the game doesn't say that it would spy on you. People buy software thinking that it is just a game. There should not be such type of hidden functionality. This should not be normal. If the company wants to use tracking and analytics then they should at least disclose it in advertising materials, and on the game store page. Or maybe make two versions of the game, with and without tracking, so that anyone would be free to chose whatever they prefer. And who cares about marketing or ad performance? That is not a consumer's problem.
