Microsoft's Kinect contract permits them to spy on you

4.4
A bit freaky. The terms of service agreement for Kinect denotes that Microsoft can essentially monitor all your voice and chat systems with Kinect. So just when you thought it was safe to strip off in your living room, you may now like to think twice.


Here's the exact quote:


“You should not expect any level of privacy concerning your use of the live communication features (for example, voice chat, video and communications in live-hosted gameplay sessions) offered through the Service.”
