Probably because it's not that big an issue to those sites? Do any of them even mention the Xbox One not having this feature? I had a quick search of those website and the last articles on the Xbox one were over a month old so it seems they barely even care about the damn thing. Also, a quick tip, The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald are run by the same company so the articles are the same.Anthony Corrigan said:
WOW,never thought people like that existed outside the conspiracy theory nuts. Lack of proof is not proof of something no matter how much Bush wanted it otherwise and the same exists here too. If you cant find a single mention of something its probably not trueSSJBlastoise said:

That refers to the whole thing not just the on\off feature though so if they were going to regulate that it wouldn't be voice command, it would be around how it could be used, what could be recorded, hell even if it can be sold at allLil devils x said:
From how I take that though is what he is saying with "In Australia, the Kinect's always-on nature may lead to unexpected regulation" and "whether anyone else can intercept their information or remotely access their device" is that there may not be current regulation that covers the Kinect, but that it is possible in the future. This may be before or after release. It also states with the "informing of consumers if their data can be intercepted or remotely accessed", that if something happens along the lines of consumers data information does get breached and accessed and the Kinect data gets out, Microsoft is going to have one hell of a suit on their hands. They could be sitting back and waiting for it to happen and go after the money first. Microsoft has painted a pretty big target on themselves with their bad press, so it is bound to happen eventually. Considering some of their executives have had their Xbox live accounts hacked already: http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/20/microsoft-xbox-live-accounts-hacked/Anthony Corrigan said:
There is no such thing as UK english accent wise do you mean the queens english? (which hardly anyone speaks because it makes most people sound like a total tosser). The UK has a pretty diverse range of accents literally travel 10 or 20 miles or even much less in some cases and people sound totally different I live here and I have trouble understanding a few. My own accent is a hybrid part devonshire and part brummy for instance or at least I have come to believe anyway as when I am in worcester of birmingham people think I am from Devon and when I am in Devon people think I am from Brum.TehCookie said:
'Microsoft announces Xbox One controllers will only work in 17 countries at launch. "We hope that customers in other countries can take advantage of the other media experiences offered by the Xbox One and are not put off by the lack of controller support", a spokesman said.'BlackJimmy said:
Well the console doesn't has to fail over this but this looks like one of those MTV Made episodes where they try to make the school cutie into a rugby player.gyroscopeboy said:
