And the Kinect can never be turned off or removed without disabling the entire thing (and probably your TV if is wired to pass through its HDMI) The mandatory internet connection will guarantee that that data they collect about you will make it back to their servers With your P address they can figure out where you are located in the country down to a couple city blocks When you combine these things, you get a system that at all times can detect every single piece of media you consume, and how you (and anyone in the room) reacts to it down to the second 2 IF YOU AND A FRIEND WATCH AN EPISODE OF THE BIG BANG THEORY THEY WILL KNOW EXACTLY WHO WAS WATCHING, HOW LONG YOU WATCHED IT, AND EXACTLY WHICH JOKES YOU LAUGHED AT (none of them). They will know if you are watching the commercials, leave the room, or start just dicking around on the internet while they play This kind of direct marketing data would be worth tens of BILLIONS of dollars to Microsoft. Just look at how much Facebook is worth using only data that people have to go out of their way to give them. Not to mention the fact that people will be giving them hundreds of dollars just to opt into their anti-consumer marketing scheme Microsoft will sell that data, and use it them selves to advertise directly to you (and possibly over the top of Live TV). Plus, that data could be subpoenaed and used against you in court (The defendant SAYS he was at home watching TV with his wife, but our data proves he was there alone). It could even be used as blackmail if someone at Microsoft had a motivation to dig up your activity

It's time for you to look inward, and begin asking yourself the big questions Do you all still defend the Xbox, a line of consoles, or are you just defenders of Game Pass?

D: o you want to know why we chose green to represent Xbox?" asks Horace Luke, the energetic industrial designer who crafted the look of Microsoft's game system. From his grin it's clear he can't wait to tell us the answer. And we can't wait to hear it. That's why we're here-in Redmond, Wash., at a nondescript office park codenamed Area Xbox- to take an exclusive look at the world's most powerful game console a full month before Bill Gates unveils it at January's Winter CES. As we scan the organized thatch of concept sketches and focus- group-analysis graphs tacked to Luke's office wall, we figure there's a perfectly scientific, wholly marketing-driven reason why the Xbox logo, packaging and eye-like jewel on the console's top shine with the fluorescent green you see gleaming on the cover of this magazine. Nope. "It's green because that's the only marker I had on me when I started sketching my designs," Luke says. It figures. Despite the half-billion-dollar

I took Orwell's 1984 to heart when I first read it in High School, so all of this is seriously ramping up my paranoia factor.
Even if I were to buy an Xbone (which I won't) the first thing I'd do is tape a piece of paper over the sensor, perhaps even putting some foam over the mic, and simply always use the controller like a normal human being.
Unless the Xbone actually requires you to show your face to the Kinect, that should work well enough to let me at least feel some privacy.
