What is it I keep saying? Laptops Tablets Smartphones webcams Ipods All have camera's and microphones but somehow the Kinect is the only thing to worry about despite the original Kinect being perfectly fine. Anybody who claims it's just the Kinect and is a reason not to buy one/the console/trust microsoft is an idiot.

  • I don't think anyone's saying it's the only thing to worry about. I think there is a focus on Kinect because a) it hasn't been adopted at the rate a smartphone or tablet has, b) it's a newer product than the ones you mentioned, and c) it offers a unique perspective into a household that none of the other products have. And it was the original Kinect that GCHQ was investigating.

  • So a laptop/webcam doesn't have the same perspective as the Kinect???? Are you nuts? Hell people have their phones out all the time as well and can be tracked anywhere at anytime. The Kinect is nothing in the long run, right now mine is in my bedroom, not my living room. Hardly unique considering I have a webcam plugged in that can see the same as my Kinect can.

  • [quote]So a laptop/webcam doesn't have the same perspective as the Kinect????[/quote] I think the perspective into the living room is unique. In houses I've been in, webcams and laptops can't see the same thing. That's obviously up to the different agencies to decide. Either way, it's the guy who thinks Kinect is the only thing worth looking at that you have to convince, not me.
