Microsoft using YOU in ads.
Microsoft is pushing a new advertising scheme where they video you and computer software adds a companies product onto your video image (ie" sunglasses, clothes, etc.).
I don't know about you, but I don't think any company has the right to use my image in its advertising, even if it is just meant to advertise to me.
I think it is also a privacy invasion.
leave it to Microsoft to get in your personal business to try to get money coming out of you.
The technology is certainly on a high level, but it is a bad use of such technology.
CNN has titled it correctly. "Scary..."
