CopEryte of CCU writes: Many questions have surrounded the new Xbox One, the draconian always online DRM requirement (now reversed) and the requirement of the Kinect connected to the system in order for it to function. What initially started out as a conspiracy theory has been given a bit of credence by the revelation that the company has admitted to cooperation with US government officials in handing over user data (including access to Skype, email, instant messaging info, etc). Whether or not Xbox Live data was handed over was not revealed, however one must surmise that this too is covered under the Patriot Act and its wide and deep reaching arms. To get a bit of clarity, lets go back and take a look at the digital lives Im quite sure most gamers live and the lives of non gamers as well.
