Thor,

Who knows what drug addicts would do to get some dough. We should know this
from our friend, Mr A. A (*The* iPad Hacker ;).

Jokes aside, I don't understand what the fuss is since they already had this
info when you signed up  your license.
I don't see matching a couple of games with your personal info much of a big
deal. Of course, this only me and my opinion.
Though a public-standing privacy  policy would be definitely nice. Shouldn't
have been a big deal neither.

Cheers,
Chris.

No, that didn't come up at the time, but I wondered the same thing.   I've
not heard of any rash of XBOX game thievery around, so my feeling is that
it's practiced elsewhere, though I have no evidence of that.  The thing is,
stealing a $50 game in order to get $5 or so at Best Buy isn't exactly an
equitable model for theft, so none of it really makes too much sense to me.

It is interesting. Did you get a sense of whether the policy is specific
to Seattle
/ King County / Washington?
