Speaker 1 (00:01):
Gandhi breaks down everything going on in the world. Here's
her three things. Target is pulling some of its gay
Pride merchandise after violent customers threatened several employees. Yesterday. The
company released a statement saying since they introduced the collection,
employees have experienced threats against their safety and well being.
They said, due to volatile circumstances, Target will be removing

(00:22):
items that have been at the center of the most
significant confrontational behavior. Today mark's a very sad anniversary. It's
been one year since the Uvalde School massacre, where nineteen
students and two teachers were murdered when a gunman opened
a fire on a fourth grade classroom using an ar
style weapon. All flags statewide in Texas will be lowered
to half staff, and of course, many will call once

(00:44):
again for Congress to act and help stop the epidemic
of gun violence that's become the number one killer of
children in America. Many are still upset about the way
the shooting was handled by the police force, and discussions
on how to handle that response are still taking place.
And finally it's here. It looks like password sharing with
Netflix is coming to an end unless you want to

(01:04):
pay more money to do it. The streaming service began
emailing customers yesterday about its new password policy. Netflix said
the email will be sent to members in the US
who have been sharing their account outside their household. Subscribers
are given two options, transfer a profile to a new membership,
or share an account with someone outside their household for
an extra eight dollars a month. Netflix noted the subscribers

(01:25):
in the same household will still be able to stream
wherever they are, including at hotels and vacation homes. I
hope you're having a great day. I'm Gandhi and those
are your three things.
