Xbox 360 user sues Microsoft for $500 billion
In effect, Stebbins is trying to do what companies like Microsoft do when they change the terms of a contract with consumers. Most people receive emails with the new terms and blindly accept them without even reading them.
Stebbins claims that after Microsoft didn't terminate the Xbox Live contract he then invited the company to have legal talks to discuss the case which he claims involve the $500 billion in damages. Microsoft didn't respond in which case Stebbins claims he is the automatic winner of that massive amount of money.
The article points out that Stebbins has also filed lawsuits against a number of other businesses with similar terms. Many of those lawsuits have been dismissed by the courts. Yet Stebbins says he is not just sending out frivolous lawsuits for the heck of it, claiming, "My true goal is not to just harass, and it's not just to get rich. My true goal is to level the playing field

warinvader-DanesxD- if this is true and he did auto win the money by microsoft dismissing the law suite microsoft is in a hole :/
Depending on what kind of "CHange-policy" is including into Microsoft's TOS he could pull it off. But there is no way he is goin to get 500 billion, any and all changes to a TOS must still be within reason or no judge is ever going to sanction them lol
Oh and let's face it, I'm sure Microsoft's 500 attorneys will find some kind of loophole in his case to get it dismissed...
