CREEPY BIG BROTHER The New Xbox One Will be a “Monitoring Device Under the Guise of a Gaming Console” letter from George Orwell Dear america did you not read my book

I remember when video games were about getting Mario to save the princess and, when you were done, the console would leave you the hell alone. The new Xbox one apparently wants to put an end to those days by turning the beloved game console into a 24/7 surveillance device. The Xbox One will bundle the Kinect – a device that captures motion and sound - with every console and its camera and mic will be always on by default. In fact, Xbox One will actually refuse to work if the Kinect is not connected to it. So the camera and mic will work even when the console is turned off. And the camera will even work in the dark. Yup. It will also be able to read your facial expressions and count the people in the room with you (there are also talks of charging Pay-Per-View movies PER PERSON in the room).
Furthermore, all of this data captured by the device could easily be transmitted to God knows where as the console will constantly require an internet connection to even function. This capability is rationalized because Microsoft wants to give users the ability of turning on the console by saying “Xbox On”. So, for this reason, the console needs to be listening to EVERY SINGLE word you’re saying around it in case you say “Xbox On”.ATT00009
The unveiling of these capabilities no one asked for has lifted some eyebrows around the world. MORE

As a gamer I can say with certainty that this system will crash. The gaming community is PISSED with all of the crap and failtastic features.

Also, if you really want people to react to this story, send this information to Anonymous. They'll have a field day with it.
