New Kinect Xbox Sees Genitalia Almost Like TSA Scanners 

There is concern about the privacy of the new gaming Kinect Xbox. The Kinect device, to be sold in combination with the XBox One, has the ability to map out in high-definition the shape of genitalia, which could ultimately be exploited by hackers and perverts to gain access to images of children, according to Infowars.
