Is it not the kinect sensor that you can't turn off, it listens for voice commands like "xbox on". If you don't buy a kinnect sensor you'll be fine.

Surely they need permission to record you in your own home?

That would be hidden in the umpteen pages of the terms and conditions that you are supposed to read when you turn the system on for the first time.Boggersbelief wrote:Surely they need permission to record you in your own home?

True. But it won't be mandatory, there must be an option to stop it recording

As Barb says, it's the Kinect sensor but you still can't turn the fucker off.

You don't need a kinnect sensor.
Same as Cortana on windows 10, im sure people at Microsoft aren't sat around wondering why i keep asking it stupid questions. Same with Apple and Siri.
I'm sure if the good peopl at Microsoft what to know what you are having for tea they can sign up on here.

Stop defending "The Man", Barb.
You won't get any special treatment when they come for us, you know.
You'll be there, wired up to a machine having your brain emptied for facts and brain juice like the rest of us.

I like Boggers avatar. Hope it isn't taking pictures when it flashes though.

I was worried about this myself when I found out.I very rarely use voice commands and mostly use control pads so I just pulled the kinect wire out of the xbox to be safe. Big brother is everywhere. It's the same with mobile phones. People could hack it use your microphone and camera without you knowing. All it takes is downloading an app with spyware secretly loaded into it and you're bugged.
