I want to know how much privacy I’m losing by using proprietary drivers on Debian for gaming. Can anyone help? I would very much like to know that.

Can proprietary drivers fetch my activity on other apps I’m running on my PC, or on the Internet? And so on. Thank you.

Of course they are. But that’s the only way some hardware works. I try to avoid them as much as humanly possible. This is why I’ll never ever buy Nvidia hardware.
