And I’m not under NDA. I have signed no contracts and made no verbal agreements; I haven’t even clicked through a EULA.

This message does pop up when I launch Deadlock, but I didn’t click “OK”; instead, I hit the Escape key and watched it disappear.

The pop-up wasn't even an agreement, it just said "don't do it"

why wouldn't it be an agreement tho? like sure it's not an EULA, but it's asking you to do something before allowing you into the game

They could have worded it differently, but they didn't. It doesn't ask, it doesn't have any confirmation or agreement language. It literally just says 'do not share anything about the game with anyone' with an 'ok' prompt.
