    Netflix is reportedly considering putting ads into its free games —

    but it would only be for those subscribed to Netflix’s ad-supported plan, according to a report from the WSJ.

    The streamer’s executives have also reportedly tossed around the idea of adding in-app purchases to games and charging extra for its more “sophisticated” titles. However, the WSJ notes “Netflix encourages open debate internally on its strategy,” which means these discussions may not come to fruition.

    Tesla is recalling another 1.6 million vehicles in China.

    The automaker recalled 2 million cars in the US last year to issue an Autopilot fix, and now it’s doing the same in China. An over-the-air software update will roll out to the affected vehicles, which is supposed to help prevent drivers from misusing its driver-assist system.

    23andMe blames security breach on users who “negligently” recycled passwords.

    The company has issued a response to the customers who are now suing it over last year’s breach. In a letter obtained by TechCrunch, the company says the hack “was not a result of 23andMe’s alleged failure to maintain reasonable security measures” and instead had to do with users’ failure to reset their passwords.

    23andMe admitted that hackers accessed the information belonging to 6.9 million users last December, but it claims the information obtained “cannot be used for any harm.”

    Norwegian driving instructors aren’t happy about Tesla’s turn signal placement.

    Newer versions of the Model S, X, and 3 come with a turn signal that’s just a button on the steering wheel, rather than on a separate stalk.

    The placement makes it more difficult for students to activate their blinkers and exit a roundabout, causing them to fail driving exams, one driving instructor tells the Norwegian outlet Motor. For that reason, some instructors in Norway believe newer Tesla vehicles are “unsuitable” as driving school cars.
