EA's Origin service is spying on you

Not directly Blizzard related, but if you also play games over EA's new Origin service, this might interest you.
According to EA's EULA for Origin, they have the right to spy on your PC, which applications are installed, make a profile of this and monitor which websites you visit.

You know what other software does the same ?, yes that'd be spyware

The entry in their EULA involved:

You agree that EA may collect, use, store and transmit technical and related information that identifies your computer (including the Internet Protocol Address), operating system, Application usage (including but not limited to successful installation and/or removal), software, software usage and peripheral hardware, that may be gathered periodically to facilitate the provision of software updates, dynamically served content, product support and other services to you, including online services. EA may also use this information combined with personal information for marketing purposes and to improve our products and services. We may also share that data with our third party service providers in a form that does not personally identify you. IF YOU DO NOT WANT EA TO COLLECT, USE, STORE, TRANSMIT OR DISPLAY THE DATA DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION, PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THE APPLICATION.
