Microsoft: We did not ban 1 million Xbox Live members
Microsoft has stated that they did not ban as many as 1 million Xbox Live members for connecting to the service using a modded Xbox 360 gaming console.
A company representative said: “We didn’t release the number. I cannot explain to you why people would think it was a million people. It wasn’t a million people. These were people that were pirating software. We try to keep sanctity of life from a safety and anti-cheating perspective and we protect our partners…I think we do a really good job understanding what people are doing on the system. That applies to intellectual property and how we treat the community in terms of harassment. We are committed to making it better and better.”
Microsoft does not allow owners of modded gaming console to connect to the Xbox Live service.
Once a console is banned, it cannot be used to connect to the online services again. Gamer has to get himself a new unit to continue playing online.
