Yes. the Germans and French are freaks, and with good reason, when it comes to their privacy. Same could be said about the English people, not the goverment though. The UK goverment is tryin to be like the US one!



LOL I could see the NSA monitoring xbl and hearing all the cursing and slurs by kids. LOL what a waste of tax payer money.

Its not MS fault its the authoritarian government regime that is in place now.



 

Sony does this too. Its standard Terms of Service/Use.

I'd say that corporations nowdays are a little to compliant wish the governments request for users private information.



This is the Game of Thrones

Where you either win

Nothing to see here. I don't see a problem. this would concern people that make big drug deals over XBL I assume.
