Blockchain, contraceptive app being blamed for unwanted pregnancies, Uber safety move in the UK and people have been ingesting laundry detergent via pods.
We start the episode with a couple of stories out of Europe. A hospital in Sweden is blaming an app that has been approved in Europe as a contraceptive method for 37 unwanted pregnancies -- they've reported it to Sweden’s Medical Products Agency, which is asking the company questions.
And in what seems like a good common-sense move, the UK is going to cap the number of hours that a driver can be logged in to the app at 10. After drivers hit that magic number, they have to take an uninterrupted six-hour break. Seems smart.
And finally in the latest dumb-trend-on-the-internet news, people are popping pods of poison in their mouths. Because that sounds like a great idea!
