    So it is because you guys invaded people’s privacy by having data you don’t even need to operate?

    Sounds like a sad excuse.

      Much of that we do need to satisfy our regulatory requirements or offer products/services to players. You don’t get to be a big casino company by throwing a bunch of standalone slot machines in a building and having no reward/points program.
