Anyways, I'm also pretty sure Microsoft gets pinged nearly every time one opens an application (unless a power user disables it), so they already know either way - what's the new risk?
Fine if you want to postulate as to what these privacy risks are but wtf, the article provides no detail whatsoever here lol.
It's not all good though ... people who play Call of Duty are more likely to default on their loans and World of Warcraft is well known to have a strong correlation with sexual predators. Banks and FBI buy the relatively cheap video game data and use it to decide which individual's browsing history ($$$) and pc usage telemetry ($$$) to buy from Microsoft.
