If you don't like the idea of IGA spying on you when you are playing Battlefield 2142, then there is a solution. I found this information here and am reposting it in case they close the topic.

If you run a local port scanner for outoging activity while playing the game, you will see some information heading out to 72.3.184.153:17475. This IP address resolves to IGA who is providing the in-game ads for BF2142. Simply block port 17475 on your router and or even the entire IP address range that is owned by IGA (72.3.184.144 - 72.3.184.159) and you're set.

IGA (IGA Technologies, LLC) is the advertising solution within Battlefield 2142 that some people are upset with because they are grabbing information about you during gameplay. Although the information is only suppose to be banner impression data and your IP address, not everyone trusts EA or IGA.

Trust EA? Hell no. They lost my confidence the day the patch was out for BF2142.
