Netflix - Netflix is testing a game streaming service on select smart TVs and desktop browsers. The test is currently limited to a small number of users in Poland, but Netflix plans to expand it to more countries in the coming months. The games that are currently available in the test include Asphalt Xtreme: Offroad Racing, Bowling Ballers, This is a True Story, Stranger Things: 1984, and Stranger Things 3: The Game. Netflix is also working on developing its own original games for the service. Controller is your phone if you’re on a smart TV, or keyboard and mouse on PC.

YouTube - YouTube is taking steps to combat spam on Shorts by deactivating links in Shorts descriptions, comments, and the vertical live feed. The company is also taking away the ability to click on social media icons on any desktop channel banners. These changes are necessary to make it harder for scammers and spammers to mislead or scam users via links. YouTube is also adding new links on creators' channels, with a big clickable link appearing by the Subscribe button. The link can bring users to anything from merchandise sites to social media accounts. YouTube is committed to making Shorts a safe and spam-free experience for users. August 31 will be the full roll out, and the permanent solution is set for a late Sept rollout.
