Message-ID: <20030911193148.GA21432@php.net> From: s.esser at e-matters.de (Stefan Esser) Subject: Computer Sabotage by Microsoft > unfortunately just by opening the xbox somewhere in there is probably a > EULA that says MS can do what it wants when it wants and by powering up > the console you agree to it..standard fare. As far as I know in the EU the EULA of MS is not worth the paper it is written on. Fact is fact: They updated my dashboard without my written permission. This is computer sabotage and it also decreased the value of the box, because it doesnt allow executing of arbitrary programs anymore. One of the features of the box i payed nearly 200 euros for. And I do not see anywhere on the box a sticker that says "MS monopoly alert, does only play what MS wants" (ignoring the fact that the XBOX is advertised as playing audio cds which is not true with all those CD copy protections in .de) Stefan Esser -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stefan Esser s.esser@...atters.de e-matters Security http://security.e-matters.de/ GPG-Key gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-key 0xCF6CAE69 Key fingerprint B418 B290 ACC0 C8E5 8292 8B72 D6B0 7704 CF6C AE69 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did I help you?
