[Gehirnkrampf]

sorry for my bad translation, it's not easy to translate a typical german word like "Bundesdatenschutzbeauftragter".

UPDATE:

now even Ilse Aigner jumped the boat

Federal Data Protection Commissioner Peter Schaar: "The fact that Microsoft now spying on my living room is merely a twisted nightmare."

spiegel.de is one of the biggest german speaking news-sites in the internet, and Schaar who is this article about works in the german government.

i hope this makes into a proper english article, but here is the rough translation via google translate:

some quotes:

"The Xbox continuously records all sorts of personal information about me. Reaction rates, my learning or emotional states. The are then processed on an external server, and possibly even passed on to third parties. Whether they will ever deleted, the person can not influence." - Schaar

"A patent application suggests that Microsoft's console might also want to use in other ways - for example, to calculate using the Kinect camera prices for movie downloads then, how many people sit in front of the TV set ." - spiegel.de

"The fact that Microsoft now spying on my living room is merely a twisted nightmare." - Schaar
