I told them on Twitter:
"Hey Xbox do us a favor and take your terms of use and shove them as far as possible up your ass. You money hungry bastards."
I don't care about my Twitter account anyway. I hardly use it lol.
Fun Fact: Businesses have one language they understand, Money.

There is also a second language that some of them speak and some still need an interpreter for: Publicity. If they get enough of the bad kind (such as everyone on Twitter pointing out how Microsoft fails horribly), something could happen. Not necessarily, of course, but why not give it a shot? It'll be funny to see Glisp's video, even in the likely scenario that nobody at Microsoft will see it.
Nonono. It still gives them money, but there's a big difference between money and profit. Windows 8 recieved some negative criticism, and followed by all the negative criticism on Xbox One so far, that could hurt microsoft's credibility.
Bad publicity and money are all the same language. If you hear something is terrible but know the previous one was great, you might buy it, as is the case with Xbox One. But if you here something new is terrible and you know the previous one was bad, you are a lot less likely to buy it.
Publicity -> Reputation -> Money -> Profit.
