#SGGQA 122: YouTube Emotes, AT&T Jacks Your Bill, XPERIA 5 Impressions, LG G8X Reviewing, ASUS ROG II Benchmarking!
At what point do you pull the plug? Youtube drama is in high gear. A popular streamer’s audience was targeted and their GOOGLE accounts were getting disabled. YouTube will also be changing their terms of service to focus on “profitable” viewers. AT&T is finally settling an FTC fine from 2014, and they’re celebrating by raising subscriber rates! China is imposing a gaming curfew on kids. Can the state “parent” more effectively?
And let’s spend a LITTLE time chatting about the LG G8X and the Xperia 5!
Let’s get our tech week started off right!
