Would it surprise you to learn Microsoft booted Epstein from its online gaming platform? As spotted by XboxEra, the latest batch of Epstein’s email shows that in December 2013, he was “permanently suspended due to harassment, threats, and/or abuse of other players.”
But it appears the real reason may be simpler: a second email from Microsoft to Epstein the very same day shows he was banned because Microsoft was among the companies who agreed to purge their systems of registered sex offenders.
It’s not clear if Epstein played Xbox himself, though. In July 2014, he asks his executive assistant “do we have an xbox 360 kinect?” and in 2016 this email appears to be a discussion of buying an Xbox as a surprise birthday gift for a boy. In 2019, a message reads “Why is there a $25.24 charge on Xbox?”
