How the new Xbox Dash watches your every move

4.5
Microsoft has released a new video about the upcoming Xbox 360 Dashboard update. There's not a great deal of new information to be had, though this is one of the few public glimpses of the new dash offered by the company.

One worrying note about the video: There's a large emphasis on the revised Dashboard learning about the user. As Xbox Live corporate VP Marc Whitten forebodingly puts it, "It's not about you learning about our technology, it's about our technology learning about you [emphasis added]." In other words, you might want to stop gaming in your underwear.

Just like the XMB? I think not! This is 100s of times more different. Did it ever occur to you that there are other people out there that use the Xbox for other things besides gaming? They have to make it appealing to everyone.

Simple solution. Don't have your webcam/kinect plugged in if not necessary.
