Blizzard used to do that as well with world of Warcraft updates IIRC ( during vanilla )
They did, and we're really up front about it being an opt-in thing, if I remember correctly. Might have started that easy with Microsoft, too. But they can't resist enshitifying.
When I joined in MoP it was still peer-to-peer by default
