why is uo.bin trying to connect to an ecom marketing platform?

launched UOA this morning, got presented with this popup. noticed the patcher doesn't even load it's content, meaning there is an authentication gating loading that patch notes and whatever is generally loaded. when cancel is selected the patcher closes. this is a picture of reproducing that by running UO.exe straight out of the client directory. 

inb4: "reinstall etc" launching the client isn't an issue, i can ignore the popup and click "Play" on the patcher and it closes the popup and runs like normal. I can click the X to close the security popup and it doesn't force close the patcher like clicking cancel does, it just doesn't load any "News" meaning our client connects to that domain to fetch patch notes/news.

super dodgy.

    I would say do not put your information into that pop up. I have never seen it. Could your uo install be compromised?  If I saw that I would run a virus scan.
