(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Just wanted to let you guys know that I am fed up with Microsoft and Xbox Live. I am preparing to get a lawyer and sue them for loss of money and time from their services for a compromise in account security. This compromise led to a permanent suspension, to which I could not control. I will let you guys know the status of the case as it goes.

Good luck with that. Can't wait to read that news article and get a good laugh. Account security is your problem not theirs. People don't seem to realize that.

Actually, it was an exploit of their system to crack the password, it's their problem.

It is definitely not my problem. The account was compromised while I was away at college. I don't need a smart remark from you. You don't seem to understand that taking money from someone is not okay, especially being a college student.

No you don't seem to understand how it actually works. Unless the company's backend was compromised, which it wasn't (if it had been, this wouldn't even be an issue and chances are there would be more then just this thread about it. Major news sites would be covering it), you are solely responsible for what happens with that account. It doesn't matter where you where when it happen its your problem.
