Yes, but it still does not make the Ubuntu SSO account *mandatory* to 
install *any* app in USC.

To be clear, I have no problem with requiring SSO for specific features. 
The problem is that it is now required in all cases, even if there is no 
technical need for it.
"This was implemented this way" is not a good reason IMHO. Bugs can be 
fixed.


About privacy, could someone point me to the privacy policy that covers 
the app listing for a user?
Is this some data that could be shared/sold to third parties?

Cheers,
Nicolas
