I'm weeks late but I use Privacy myself for things like subscriptions or for like payment for like certain bills if I don't trust their security. I don't know how it works but since I use a free tier, I'm sure they sell your purchase information. At least that's what I assume.

Call me naive but Lars Wingefors (the CEO of Embracer) seems tohave a genuine interest in games and game history. According to Forbes: In, 1993, at age 15, Wingefors started a company to buy and flip used video games. Four years later he dropped out of high school because his company had sales of $10 million per year. In 2021 they announced a Game preservation/archive initiative: https://embracer.com/om-oss/gamesarchive/ where they want to archive and save as much of the video games industry as possible. Currently they have 50,000 games, consoles, and accessories in Karlstad, Sweden. They want to network and collaborate with initiatives, museums, and institutions, provide help to researchers and journalists with inquiries. With a long-term ambition to exhibit parts of the archive locally and through satellite exhibitions at other locations. Sounds ambitious but neat to me!
