Epic Games Launcher appears to collect your steam friends and play history

To replicate these findings you can use Microsofts Process Explorer:

So this comes originaly from Reddit, I found out via lashman Metacounil post (This is not endorsement of those findings)But I tried to replicate those and found out that Epic Games Launcher on start up searches for Steam installand proceeds to get list of files in your Steam Cloud (this includes mostly game saves for every user that has logged in on your PC)Steam Cloud is stored under userdata\[account id]\ if you wanna checkIt will also create encrypted copy of config\localconfig.vdf.This file contains your steam friends, their name history (groups you’re part of, are considered “friends”). The launcher makes an encrypted local copy of your localconfig.vdf Steam file. However information from this file is only sent to Epic if you choose to import your Steam friends, and then only hashed ids of your friends are sent and no other information from the file.Epic is controlled by Tim Sweeney.
