#SGGQA 269: Pixel 7 Leaks, Stadia Shutting Down, Chrome Ad Blockers, Bruce Willis Deep Fakes

2 hours 28 minutes

The Pixel 7 is RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! We’ve got a Google heavy show this week to celebrate!

Congress asks the FTC to look into the Amazon and iRobot deal. The FCC puts a five year limit on old satellites. Bruce Willis has NOT sold his likeness rights for deep fakes. Netflix is adding gamer tags!

And while chatting Pixel 7, we should also look at Youtube making 4K video a paid feature, Stadia shutting down, and what’s going on with content verification?

Let’s get our tech week started right!
