No. As has been stated time and again, you own the Xbox and can do what you like with it as it is your property.

MS on the other hand owns and operates the live service to which they allow you access if you abide by their terms of service.

It seems many here are getting the two confused. Believing that by purchasing an Xbox one is bestowed with some legal right to access the Xbox live service. This is not the case. It is akin to saying "I have the right to access Xbox live and shouldn't have to pay the access fee because I own an Xbox". Of course you don't. You only have the right to access Xbox live if you abide by all the terms of service of the agreement, including paying the access fee and accessing it with an Xbox that has not been modded.
