I'm pretty sure the EULA doesn't meet the notification requirements under Washington's law. Regardless, each person who sends a report to Microsoft would have to get your consent. Microsoft can't get it on behalf of every random user, because they're not an official representative of the company. Because Soyboy16 is recording your conversation with him, he has to obtain the consent himself.
The law also creates a civil cause of action, so even if the government didn't want to impose criminal penalties I bet you could find one of those ambulance chaser types to start a class action lawsuit on behalf of every Washington Xbox player. Now multiply that by every state that has similar laws.
I agree with you but I wish I could rely on a law being written down on paper to provide that protection. If no-one will enforce this it might as well not exist.
