Hello fellow TR forumists,
Recently i received an invite for participating in the Warface closed beta. After going through the usual stuff of setting up a username and confirming e-mail i reached a point where i was asked to install a plug in for the browser (currently it only supports Chrome and firefox afaik) and to my surprise it asked me to allow it to have access to all my browsing history and all the data on my HDD.

Isn't that a SPYWARE or am i wrong?
Please discuss bellow.
Background information
Warface is a upcoming first person shooter, free to play game which is developed by Crytek Kiev. It uses the Cryengine 3 and it will have closed maps, as far as i can tell and probably no vehicles. It will try to target CoD fans with a simillar style of play but better graphics and a few features specific to games like Crysis. Here is a video of the gameplay
