Prosecutors dropped a misdemeanor charge after courts blocked a video that allegedly shows him paying for sex.

Last year, it was reported that Amazon was apparently thinking about getting into the game streaming business, and sure enough they have. The company has recently announced Luna, its attempt at launching a game streaming platform, following in the footsteps of other platforms like NVIDIA’s GeForce Now, Microsoft’s xCloud, and Google Stadia.

However, it won’t be the same as these other services. Unlike Stadia where you have to pay to play individual titles, Luna will follow a similar concept as xCloud where you pay a flat subscription fee and get access to an entire library of games. However, even then it will differ from xCloud where Amazon will be launching individual “channels” for partner publishers.

One of the partnered publishers is Ubisoft, where users can choose to subscribe to that channel in order to access specific Ubisoft titles. Alternatively, they can also subscribe to the Luna+ channel which comes with its own games. For now it seems that each channel might have its own limitations/requirements, for example the Luna+ channel supports up to 2 devices at once, while the Ubisoft channel only supports one device at a time.

Luna+ is priced at $5.99 a month, which Amazon notes is its introductory price. There is no word on how much the Ubisoft channel subscription will cost. Luna is currently in early access so it isn’t open to everyone just yet, and it is also only available in the US for now. For those interested in getting early access, head on over to Luna’s website to request for an invitation (not guaranteed).

Due to the fact that home security cameras are becoming cheaper, easier to install, and easier to use, it’s not surprising that more people are starting to use them. For the most part, they get the job done, but who’s to say that it cannot be improved upon? That’s what Amazon is trying to do with its latest Ring home security camera.

Dubbed the Ring Always Home Cam, this is a home security camera that actually comes with a drone built into it. Yes, you read that right. This security camera has a tiny drone that can fly out from its dock upon command, meaning that instead of getting multiple cameras to cover multiple areas, you can just use one to fly to specific areas you want to take a look at.

The best part is that this also addresses some privacy concerns about always-on cameras. The dock itself does not have a camera and the camera is built into the drone. This means that when the drone is docked, the dock blocks the camera so that even if it is recording, it won’t be able to capture any video.

The drone is fully autonomous, but users can set a path to fly if they wish. Users will be asked to help build a map for the drone when they first set it up, so that the drone will know about specific areas like your kitchen, bedroom, and so on. The Ring Always Home Cam will be priced at $250 and will be released in 2021.
