in times of GDPR is that behaviour quite negligent. Please check your privacy settings! GOG has made visible the number of your purchased games and the playing time for everyone. Why the new profile is activated by default? I think it should be the user's decision as to which data he wants to share.

I am here one time per month, so in about...

Where does GOG take the right to publish private data from his users? How long a user plays games and how many games a user purchased is a very, very private thing in my eyes. The whole thing is very questionable. GOG has lost my confidence a bit....
