I thought this should get its own thread to stop peeps missing it if its buried in a 15page existing thread, sorry if posted already but its new to me and I do not seem to see it here.

"hey guys,
first, let me say this. you DO NOT NEED TO USE THE INTERNET EVERY TIME YOU PLAY THIS GAME. it is only the first time.
second, you can uninstall and reinstall this game, and if, by chance, you have 2 computers you want to simultaneously play this game on, you also can do that.
if by some chance you are reinstalling this game without uninstalling it first, a lot, there is a chance you may have to call securom and get a key, or deactivate some older installations.
but if you upgrade your hardware next week, you'll still be able to play the game. if you revamp your system and need to reinstall bioshock, just uninstall it before you go through the overhaul, and then do your reinstall.
calling it "hardware fingerprinting" is a bit alarmist. we do not transmit any of your data to any companies.
really, the only people who will be concerned about any of these security measures are those who are rapidly putting bioshock on many pcs... if you use the game as you normally do, you won't notice this at all." .

"seriously, if you guys are calling securom or 2K and not getting the activation keys, please SM me the names of the people you are talking to. this is NOT supposed to be happening. but everyone i have talked to has told me that when they call, their issues are being resolved.
if you really aren't getting the support you need, please message me about it. but anyone i have asked to supply this information with has not. emails nor names. i am not, in any way, calling you a liar. i want you to have the correct and proper support. but i don't know who to yell at without finding out the weak link.
