The funny thing is, they actually couldn't have gotten away with it in 1997. Oh don't get me wrong, people would tolerate a lot even then and let them get away with horrible stuff, but people absolutely wouldn't have allowed anything remotely like what goes on today. It has been one heck of a long process to get everyone to the point where Microsoft can do everything but install cameras in their house and people will just shrug and accept it.
Actually, we may already be to the point that people will accept the cameras...
