How do I bypass the EA App and access Origin to play games.

that's how mine is...

I dunno

I'm certain the popup is a webpage

but what address needs to be blocked is only something I'm half sure.

In my case, the EA App does install, but obviously still broken with missing entitlements.

The EA APP has been in developement for 3+ years, and yet. Still worse than origin.

The effort they wasted on that piece of crud could've easily been used to upgrade origin for whatever they needed it to do.
