Description

The deadly mass shooting in Buffalo, New York this weekend was live streaming on Twitch for two minutes before it was taken down. But the video of the shooting was easy to re-upload on multiple platforms, and has now been watched millions of times. The gunman said that the ability to live stream was part of his motivation to commit the crime. Should tech companies step up?

Plus, answers to your lingering questions about Roe v. Wade and its future.

And, a fix on the horizon for the infant formula shortage.
