    Not Facebook, their own social network.

    I'm pretty sure EA or the developer will release another set of statements clarifying the matter.

      That's a little better I suppose, and could actually be interesting based on how well they integrate it into the game. I'll wait and see and put away my "Jump to Conclusions" mat for now.

      It's a bit of a sore spot for me, admittedly, as I just started using Spotify and found out that I'm not allowed to have anything but the default portrait unless I have a Facebook...

        Yeah. The reason why I made my initial post here was to avoid a flame war.

        For the Spotify matter, you could just create a dummy private Facebook for that. That;s what I did for many sites.

          I actually tried the "dummy facebook" route, but to sign up they require me to either give them a phone number they can text or upload a picture of my driver's license. That's not going to happen, Facebook.

            Huh strange. They changed the rules from when I signed up a few years back. Back then, you just needed an email address.

          Running the risk that FaceCrook will doxx you and start autotagging people’s pictures with your assumed name?
