Thing is, it is the same requirement as EA, Ubisoft, and to some extent, Valve.
Granted, I think those others have spread their legal agreements to more countries, which has been the main complaint. But they all get to track player data; I’m sure Sony only got into PC wanting that too.
People complain when EA and Ubisoft do it too. As for Valve, what game that's not on Steam requires a Steam login? That's the issue here, being required to use their platform account when not on their platform.
