Ultimate Xbox One Trolling Is Actually Kind of Genius

Warning: This video contains some profanity.

The Xbox One's voice recognition through Kinect is convenient and useful -- until some enterprising trolls managed to weaponize it during online matches of Call of Duty.

YouTube users Master of Luck and MisterCoDSlayer posted the video, above, during which one of them changed his Xbox Live handle to "Xbox Sign Out." He then intentionally egged on players during Call of Duty: Ghosts online matches so the other players would yell out his handle.

Of course, the Xbox One recognizes that string of words as a command, and will send the player to the Log Out screen, where they must confirm their desire to log out.

Based on the commentary at the beginning of the YouTube video, many users enjoyed the trolling. Thanks to the in-game communication in Call of Duty: Ghosts, they were easily able to compile the best reactions.
