      Who uses the crappy social features anyway? Turn them off and leave me alone.

    Why? Everyone is 12. We’ve known this as long as Xbox Live has existed.

      And they’ve got my credit card details, and an email address and purchase history more than 18 years old. So use that…

    Yoti, a trusted third-party identity verification provider

    Sure they could do it without relying on a third party, but Microsoft knows its users are going to have an easier time trusting "Yoti" rather than trusting Microsoft.

      And ms will find it a lot easier to blame the screwups on yoti than on themselves
