Things like what Microsoft has done tends to attract people like anonymous.


Every console attracts hacking, this is for sure. But yes, I think MS (how did you miss the "$"?) will be number 1 target for hackers but I guess PS4 will suffer from hacking, too.But I think with MS they will have a hard time and they need again some hardware-hacking to make pirated games possible.


The PS3 got hacked immediately after Sony pissed off the hackers when they locked down the system  so linux couldnt be used on it. Any form of OS lockdown pisses off hackers if they bought the product with the ability to do so. The reason they do it is to prove that they own their product and that consumer electronics companies need to stop intruding upon the product that they own. They know the risks of hacking and modding their own products as well as adding to them. The Xbox One is a hackers dream to tear apart. They will rape Microsofts azure system in the OS if Microsoft continues with the restrictions, which I am glad to hear they are somewhat backing off from, but don't completely believe yet until the product launches.
