I just spent over half an hour reading razer's actual TOS, just because I needed to see exactly what razer's customers are in for. I suggest anyone buying any of their products do the same.
The following is another users comments on another site but fits my thoughts about this perfectly.
...
"User Generated Information" means any information made available to Razer through your use of the Software. Subject to the Privacy Policy mentioned above, you expressly grant Razer the complete and irrevocable right to use, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, transmit, broadcast, and otherwise communicate, and publicly display and perform the User Generated Information and derivative works thereof in any form, anywhere, with or without attribution to you, and without any notice or compensation to you of any kind.
By using Razer Synapse 2.0 ("Synapse"), the Subscriber agrees that Razer may collect aggregate information, individual information, and personally identifiable information. Razer may share aggregate information and individual information with other parties. Razer shall not share personally identifiable information with other parties, except as described in the policy below.
Yes folks, to put it simply Razer Synapse 2.0 software is actively spying on you and collecting data on who knows what and they even tell you they are doing it their listed ToS. What's worse is they even say that they will probably sell it. Which I'm sure they are By the way.
You also cannot install and use any of their products what uses Synapse 2.0 with all its features without being forced to install the spyware program. If you do not have an active internet connection you cannot install Synapse 2.0 there is no way around this. Basically Razer's Synapse 2.0 software is always online and is spying on everything you do plus if you lose connection or their servers go down then you are unable to access your hardware configurations. Purchase and install their products with extreme caution.
My thoughts exactly. But if you're ok with the TOS, do you, buy a Razer. It's not a bad mouse as in real bad.
Ok, I think I'm all done with this issue as I just got a complete refund issued to me from Amazon.
My Logitech G500 will be here today, and once again life is on track. All is good.
