Why won't Microsoft hurry up and ban these pirates?

Some of those may be pirates but if they're playing it connected to Live most of them probably aren't.

I would say a good amount of them are:

1. People in France who got it early
2. People in random other places that got it early
3. Testers/Bungie employees

This sums it up.  MS said they would be banning anyone who was playing it early using a pirated copy.  They specified that if you attained a legal copy early and were playing you would not be banned, so they are doing stuff about it, and they can obviously tell which ones are pirated and which ones aren't somehow.
