If thats true, then its an obvious breach of privacy.

AFAIK, the scan is for HDD size, not content.
See earlier in this thread:

Although it has been confirmed that the code for the scan exists (& has done for a while now), I don't think it has yet been shown that M$ are actually doing this scan & banning people with non-standard HDD sizes. (Yet?).
Of course, if they wanted to, they could easily do an actual file scan of the HDD, to look for any non-standard stuff such as EvoX & so on.
The XBL T&Cs do say that you agree to only use XBL with an un-modded XBox (guess I've broken that then!), I don't know if they also allow M$ the right to scan your files though.
