Origin to get livestreaming

http://www.origin.com/us/news/whats-coming-in-the-next-origin-update

Were proud to announce that Origin is partnering with Twitch, and today were launching phase one of this integration. With a few clicks of your mouse, you can now broadcast your gaming session live, directly to your Twitch channel, for gamers around the world to view. With the combined power of Origin and Twitch, its never been easier to take your own gameplay online, in real-time.

To start broadcasting, just start playing a game, then bring up Origin In Game by hitting Shift+F1 (or whatever keystroke youve chosen for your Origin In Game Hotkey). Youll notice a camera icon has been added to the bottom of this screen.

You'll also be able to add non-Origin games to Origin in the next update.

IDK what it is, I am still scared to install Origin based upon their.... history. I have a hard time trusting EA, I even used a nocd mod on my mass effect 3 when I bought it so I wouldnt have to install Origin.

I dont like the idea of spying. Most people are comfortable with it but im not, this kind of thinking makes it seem ok for companys like EA to behave like the way that they do now.

Suppose that they do spy on your PC and they wont ever do anything beyond simple advertising. Its still to me something I do not like and would not rather be a part of. They are just another Sony to me, ticking time bomb until they get hacked or until they need more money.

Sorry for the derailment OP, didnt actually intend this.

I used Origin quite a lot lately with Most Wanted, BF1942 for free and the Crysis 3 Alpha. I never liked the idea of yet another gaming client, but I'm glad that they are constantly improving it.

I dont want to insult you...my god i dont want to insult you...BUT I CAN"T HELP IT!
You sir are the biggest idiot i ever seen...

The very OS you run to boot up your PC does the same things as Origin...Facebook also...all the other social platforms...any type of messenger...WTF are you talking about?????All the sites that you visit spy on you...GS does it too...

To have some kind of "privacy" on you will need not to connect to the interwebz...ever...

You want to tell me that you are living in a lake full of **** full of **** and piss...and when somebody trows in your lake a toilet/WC, you will not use it because you are affraid of getting "dirty"????THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE TELLING US! Are you in your right mind?!
And what do you thin they are spying on you for...or what are you afraid of?Do you think that anyone will check on what you do on you PC???No one gives a **** what porn sites do you visit...or what websites do you visit in genaral...or what kind of software programs you have in your pc...pfff

I'm not an idiot pheasant, see how do you like being called names.

Secondly I know this but its something I still don't trust.

I didn't want to insult you...i really didn't...but i couldn't help it.And for that iam sorry.
But you are still freaking me out!!!!
Your fears are based on nothing...
Give me a real world example that could justify your fear of Origin...something like:"iam afraid Origin would steal my credit card info"...something that is valid in the real world!
I really want to understand you...somehow...

Origin doesn't spy, people thought it did because it scanned directories in search of EA games to add. That's all it did and people somehow read that as Origin was spying on people, sending back their information etc. nutcrackr
