See this is where I'm not sure i agree. According to everythign i have read you can choose to not use the service at all. What you saying is you can choose not to use the functions of the service but you are indeed involved in it regardless.

All i can find about this is that the service is not required. You can choose to use it or not. If not life goes on as normal. My thoughts being that if I'm not using the service than im not my own friend because i dont use the system. It would be like saying I'm a member of a club i never go to or signed up for but im part of it wether i like it or not.

What I'm getting from your statement is you are part of the service and involved even on a rudimentary level regardless. The you are your own friend bit. If thats the case i forsee TONS of issues for blizzard. Im not doubting you have read this though personally i would like to see a reference. After which i may need to send a few cranky emails to blizzard.
