Amazon has just announced that they are willing to shell out $30 million over privacy complaints in their Ring doorbells and Amazon Alexas. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) found out that the household devices recorded their information as normal, but Amazon kept some of the videos and audio that their devices took. Amazon denied this in a company statement, but they are now going to give this money to customers to settle the complaints.

On another note, amid the new news of Canada introducing warnings on individual cigarettes, another country is nearing a milestone in cigarette use. The Scandinavian country of Sweden is almost the first smoke-free country in the world. Sweden's tobacco usage has been waning recently, and cigarettes are getting harder and harder to find around the area. Good news for the Swedes!
