Microsoft Sends Takedown Notices to Sites Hosting Leaked "Xbox 720" Document

Microsoft isn't happy we got to see their hand.

None

If you were unsure about the legitimacy of the internal document revealing Microsoft's plans for their next-gen gaming hardware, well then Microsoft may have just cleared things up a bit. The company has sent messages to sites hosting the document to take it down. 

The document, which outlined Microsoft's 5-year hardware plans from 2010 through 2015, included information on "Xbox 720", "Kinect V2", and a previously unmentioned piece of hardware, a set of Augmented Reality glasses codenamed "Forzaleza".

The document was initially hosted on Scribd, but was taken down after the company recieved a notice from Covington & Burling LLP, an international law firm that represents Microsoft. Several notices have been sent to sites keeping the document up since then by Microsoft through its legal team, including Ihned.cz, a Czech technology site, and cloud storage service Dropbox.
