Honestly the new Xbox and PS4 were probably made to spy on people...I know someone is gonna hop in here and say I'm crazy or I'm stretching
but the PS4 is coming with a camera and its MANDATORY for the new Xbox to use the Kinect...the Kinect uses all kinds of sophisticated technology and shit that records HD video, capturing your 3D figure, even capturing your face. it records you when you play so you can save your funniest moments, it'll even record your heartbeat and joint movements. So it's pretty damn sophisticated
fact: The Kinect is the fastest selling consumer technology in the history of humanity, selling over 8 million units in its first 60 days...selling faster than any phone, TV, console, camera, etc in the HISTORY of electronic devices

Does anybody else not see past the bullshit? Now throw in this article Yahoo posted a little more than a year ago

The government is extremely intrusive & they want to know everything about everyone. Down to the color of the shit you take
Apparently the Xbox'll have technology that'll send out ads tailored to the person playing. If you're wearing a Lakers basketball jersey it'll send you ads about basketball. Etc. That's scary in itself if you can't see what's going on around you
Microsoft bought Skype..the new Xbox will have Skype. Perfect software to bundle with the Xbox One in an effort to use video/audio surveillance
let's not forget that Google has a foot in almost everything & are 1 of(if not THE leader) in terms of companies that have amassed a lot of information on people. Google records your searches (thanks to a recent bill that happened around the Boston Bombing. perfect timing). Android phones will easily overtake (& soon overthrow) Apple's iPhone...
Google owns: Motorola, YouTube, Android, & have a partnership with Time Warner(cable)...In some form or fashion I'm sure we're all under surveillance or will be within the next 5-10 yrs. Google promises the entire world to be online by 2020. So we'll see.
in this day in age having information about an entire population down to every habit and like of every person has to be worth about the same, if not more, than gold.
