YouTube’s New Parental Control Feature
Parents can now protect their children from seeing inappropriate and violent content online with the new parental approval feature. The feature allows users to handpick content available to their children. Additionally, YouTube will soon release the ability for parents to modify their child’s YouTube Kids app to only display channels that have been reviewed by humans instead of algorithms. We would rather have children watch Brave Wilderness with Coyote Peterson hunting down a blue tongue skink than Homer from The Simpsons hunting down a Duff beer.

Special Delivery! Amazon Prime Delivers Straight to Your Trunk
Amazon Prime has released new delivery availabilities allowing packages to be delivered to your office, inside your front door, a locker, or even inside the trunk of your car! This warehouse to trunk service will be a new feature available only to 2015 or newer Chevy, Buick, GMC, Cadillac, or Volvo vehicles. While this in-car delivery option does not require any additional hardware, customers must weigh the cost of privacy vs. convenience, a cost many consumers are already willing to make.
