The Buffalo News Police Blotter reports that a pair of thieves stole Xbox wireless controllers and police tracked them down by contacting the manufacturer. Maybe this is standard operating procedure for the cops, but it was new to this submitter. Any idea of the mechanism(s) involved?
No explicit mention of Microsoft — perhaps these controllers were made by a third party to work with Xbox.

You are 59 years old and you are just figuring this out now?
Money talks.
Any private citizen who pays tens of thousands in property taxes each year can expect the same level of government service.
