The crazy thing is that, by forcing me to tie video games to my Microsoft account, they’ve convinced me to never use it for anything where security is important, like office, windows, or azure.
I wonder how long it’ll be before they try to force the same nonsense on github and linkedin.
Either way, I need to trash (sell?) my xbox one. Worst. Console. Ever. The 360 would still be OK if it didn’t take me 2 hours to jump through their auth hoops every time I pull it out of the closet. At least the indie store games still work when I’m not logged in.
Despite paying for minecraft, I’m guessing I’ll end up looking for a cracked copy pretty soon. I actually got my raspberry pi to login to my microsoft account, but, based on the xbox behavior, I’m guessing it’ll repeatedly lock itself out moving forward. Grrr.
