Besides the fact that you were blocked of playing YOUR game because of the problem in THEIR Ubi-thing, there another major issue:

You need to install a program that according to their license can basically spy on you.

Some people will say nobody forced you to buy the game, but imagine: if all companies selling cars decided to add a bug to record your talks claiming they can this way offer a better service, how reasonable would it be?

I don't know how reasonable it would be, but it would be a great time to start a car company that didn't do that.
