This is because of the installing to HDD feature without the need of inserting a disc. I don't see what the fuss is and what this guy is even talking about 'Relationship'... Did anyone think any different with the mass amount of account theft and the amount of Microsoft points stolen on the Xbox 360, flashed consoles and JTAG'd devices? This so called relationship was ended when the users started taking Microsoft for a ride, we're not all thieves and cheaters granted but when you've been on live since the original Xbox you'll understand what I'm talking about. If people could get away with selling games but actually keeping them on the HDD then they would.
As for this Kinect thing, I guarantee Facebook knows a lot more about you than Kinect ever will but I don't see an uproar.
I think Cimt and Matt said above that Sony will likely implement the same features the Xbox have or face losing the backing of publishers, I think they're spot on.
