Microsoftâs response to a law firmâs attempt to round up Xbox Live users smashed by the recent mass-banning reminds everyone that the serviceâs TOS allow it to hammer pirates, anytime, anywhere, so STFU.
Well, not literally STFU, but one imagines thatâs heavily implied with this kind of boilerplate, uttered by a Microsofot spokesperson on Friday to Canadaâs Financial Post.
âPiracy is illegal and modifying an Xbox 360 is a violation of the Xbox Live Terms of Use. Microsoft is well within its legal rights to ban these users from Xbox Live.â
No suitâs been filed, remember. I think the firm involved in this saw the claims that a million XBL users were caught in the blast and went beating the bushes figuring at least some lucrative percentage of those were innocent. While Microsoft hasnât specified the total number of pirates banz0red, itâs cast doubt on rumors that it was, in fact, seven figuresâ worth.
