Privity, a lack of interest in hacking 360's and waiting six months, a lack of interest in taking expensive court cases and a lack of interest of pandering to trolls. I've linked this stuff...

Why hasn't anyone? I mean it is a very easy thing to get a lawyer these days, lots of them work on a "I don't get paid unless I win" basis. Why hasn't the Office of Fair Trading(or it's UK equivalent) done it's job and ordered MS to remove them?

not how it works - the complaint has to be taken up by an affected end-user!
