Yes, in reality it may not really amount to much (what can they really gleam from what people say on XBL), but it's still another unwarranted intrusion.
Plus, as the article said, if this goes through, then costs of affected services could go up to compensate for them having to be reworked to enable this.
And, it isn't just XBL they are talking about. It's also instant messenging, & various Voice over IP apps.

Are you worried there checking your game stats and seeing how bad they are.

Ooh, cutting
Nope, if they want to see how bad my stats are, all they have to do is check the XBox.com website.

NO well who cares they can't check anything outside the US of A anyway and I doubt any decent gamer would be using US servers anyway

Who says they can't/won't check anything outside the US?
"doubt any decent gamer would be using US servers anyway" lol
While there are servers in the US, & the UK, & elsewhere, the whole thing is still one network. You can play with & speak to people from all over the world, including the US.
