"Microsoft Vice President Dennis Durkin told a conference that the new Kinect controller for the Xbox 360 can watch and report on users. The Kinect, Durkin said, can tell advertisers such details as who is in a room and what they're wearing. Microsoft has denied that the data captured is being used as portrayed in Minority Report and 1984."

cool...i play naked.

the same thing can also happen for pc web cams&ps3 eyetoys.

Oh wow that is quite eerie, and It can detect what they're wearing!? Another reason as to why i am not purchasing this device. I loved 1984 in HS English class, they should make a game about the book :).F0urTwenty

Usually don't post on Xbox, but this caught my attention.

Just another reason why Microsoft has gone insane... Now they think they think they can rule the world.

The Thought Police man.

If the Government even THINKS you are a terrorist they'll come and arrest you.

Google is with the CIA and they can have suspicions on you if you are searching "suspicious" items.

Camera's are in every Major City and even on your Local Stop Lights.

dude, don't JOKE that "It's happening right now". CAUSE IT IS.

Don't be, I read somewhere that no human being is checking the data sent from your kinect but a machine.

It was called skynetwork or something like that... Too long of a name if you ask me...

What is it with everybody and the Illuminati, all they are is a group that wants a new world order. One government, not necessarily ruled by them.

If we find out that there making brain chips for poples heads like cell phones... DON'T get them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like a market for kinect camera covers...lol.

Mine is actually behind doors in my entertainment center so MS isn't seeing crap if I don't want them to. Take that big brother....

I was also thinking they should shorten it a bit... Maybe skywork?

It's really sad at how many people probably believe this...

even though you cover the cameras, they are using the mics to listen in on what your doing and maybe stick around when you do "Naughty" things;)

Skynet duhhh.... wait isn't that the name of the thing that caused Judgemeny day in the Terminator movies?CoolSkAGuy

Yes! Yes it is. "skynet has become self aware" is what you hear before the worlds ending. Its funny how shamlessly they use it.

I say F*$# the police comin straight from the underground. Its hilarious how obvious it is that we are watched and monitored in every aspect of our lives yet some people are still oblivious to it. Is it disturbing they can watch us through our kinects and while were walking the dog yes absolutely, is there a damn thing we can do about it, hell no.

That big brother people always used to talk about and be paranoid about watching their every move is now simply referred to as facebook, and that in combination with Skynet equals the very fact that the novel 1984 is the year 2010.

You can either be afraid and live in a hole, or accept it, defend yourself and live as you always have regardless of their intrusions.

Peace!

I think they meant in terms of playing a game geniuses.. if you're playing and are actively engaged in using the thing, they can probably look at your clothes and advertisers would use that data for their company. It has nothing to do with watching you personally and keeping tabs on you. Also, if your Xbox is turned off at night, this thing won't be watching you sleeping or anything. And there are a lot more stuff for you to worry about with a webcam. Did you hear about the story of these high school students who were being watched by their school through the webcams of their school-issued laptops? Now that's a real story, not this stuff.wwervin

I remember that, the school was watching a student and called his house and told his parents he was taking pills, but he was really just eating mike ikes, or whatever they are called.

cool...i play naked.
