I find it more insulting that people with such strong thoughts about privacy waste their time complaining about Kinect rather than campaigning against their governments about protecting privacy. Its the law and not the device that's a problem so either start campaigning to your government properly or stfu on a videogame forum.

I know and i am proposing a way to deal with these threats that will not invade my privacy, you on the other hand are acting like a republican in a anti-terrorism suit, paranoid much?

clasic case of double standards you want the US to invade my privacy and spy on my but you hate that Snowden did exacly the same on the US government. Just like those guys saying that Ps4 owners were paranoid because they think the government are goig to spy on them, then they defend the government by saying that we have to defend ourselfs from terrorist attacks, one has to ask, who is more paranoid?

In general, if its private, keep it in person.

if it leaves a online paper trail, it ain't private.

Typical right wing protectionism, perhaps a stormfront poster has lost his way here. if anything snowden exposed American government's hypocrisy for the world to see. A self proclaimed model of freedom, liberty and justice isn't too examplery at all after, huh? 

A Brit defending and advocating all things American? I'm seeing a pattern here.

Yes thats exactly why i said it... Anyway all im demostrating is that being preocupied by terrorism is justified, but not enough to give away my right to privacy cause there are other ways to solve this issues, we need to stop doing the same things if we want different results.

where is the like button in here! we need one now!

Yeah, let's all live in chains so the big bad terrorists can't hurt us.

They threats we face today are not justification for the Soviet-style clusterfuck of NSA.

Very good point and very scary. But Internet, mobile devices and social media are also a dictator's greatest threat.

I am sure they do, but some of us value our privacy.

As for threats in the home. This is why in the US I can keep a gun in my home.

This is a far bigger threat than any terroism oput there.

This is the kind of stuff that will stifle free speech. This is the kind of stuff that can be used against opposing political parties, or used to snowball journalist or people who speak out against the government. Heck, anyone (like snowden did) could hack it and use it for their own means(there is no safe way to protect Dtata, its all vulnerable to atacks). The terrosists could gain access to all this information and use it against us. Coupled with the abuses at the IRS, it really worries me. On top of that we currently have a domestic police agency accountable to the feds and not the people, and arming itself to the teeth, and we have the makings for an easy coupe. Yes I know a little conpsiracy theory. But all the makings are there. The abuse has already begun with the IRS, and the wiretapping of reporters. If we had any decent press left this stuff should be all over the news. Instead we get the TRayvon Zimmerman trial. Terroism in the US atleast hasn't killed that many people. If anything the biggst and worst effect of the terrorism is the allowance of the american public for these massive breaches of privacy.

But I agree, this isn't an MS problem, its a government problem and a a problem for each and every tech/service company
