    The UK is clamping down on sexually explicit deepfakes.

    An incoming change will criminalize the creation and sharing of sexually explicit deepfakes as part of efforts to tackle “vile online abuse,” the UK Ministry of Justice said on Tuesday.

    It’s also going after people who take intimate images or videos without someone’s consent, with offenders facing up to two years behind bars.

    There’s now a $130 Philips Hue app for LG TVs.

    The Hue Sync TV app was previously only available for Samsung TVs, but now you can sync up your lighting with content playing on your LG TV (for a pretty hefty price, of course).

    The app, which also comes with the option for a $3.99 per month subscription, is available on LG TVs with webOS 24 and newer.
