New report: Microsoft To Ban ‘Offensive Language’ & Monitor Your Private Account
“According to a new services agreement written by the company, the tech giant is planning to ban accounts that use “offensive language” and will go through your private data to “investigate” users.
In a March 1 release, Microsoft is warning customers using Office, Xbox, Skype, and other products that the company is prohibiting offensive language and inappropriate content starting on May 1. “Don’t publicly display or use the Services to share inappropriate content or material (involving, for example, nudity, bestiality, pornography, offensive language, graphic violence, or criminal activity),” Microsoft warns in a portion of their new codes of conduct.”
Sit back and break out the popcorn, this should get interesting. Wonder how long it takes for the fanbois to break out the, “everyone else is doing it” excuse?
You Too Microsoft?
I guess I’ll have to write all my Porn Stories using Libra then 😉
WTF? What are these offensive words and who is offended by them? Like the 7 words you can’t say on television? Geek Squad? I have a new top end desktop computer running Windows 10 and a 55″ UHD monitor, and a 15 year old Gateway running Windows 7 with a 27″ monitor. Guess which I use 90% of the time.
