Streaming services are in a hell of their own design, because they've trained their audiences to never get invested in new shows because they'll just end up getting cancelled. I'm still mad Netflix cancelled that amazing Dark Crystal show, but it teaches you one thing; never get invested.

A couple that was stalked and harassed by eBay for years has settled with the company, and three former executives including the former CEO, for $56 Million. David and Ina Steiner were harassed by eBay security because eBay executives were furious about Ms. Steiner's reporting on the company.

I worked at Disney a while ago. Do you know why theme parks are so safe? Because OOSHA reps can walk the track on any ride at any time and any safety violation they see is a $10,000 fine. Each. Theme parks are not safe because the company cares. They're safe because it's cheaper to comply.
