seeing as it's 3 weeks before launch I don't think there are any honestly-bought copies which means its blanket ban approach and it works perfectly. Which is why it's hilarious
I've seen several pictures of opened copies (could be fake, sure), and Halo 2 was shipped to retailers several weeks before release (but that was a long time ago and their policies may have changed in that regard) and had a similar problem to this.
IIRC they banned people who tried to play on Live, but not people who were signed in but playing singleplayer. At least, that seemed to be the policy.
