• In a push by the Federal Government, US universities are required to strengthen their policies and punishments with respect to sexual assault. When Yale University released its guidelines, it caught flack because in some instances students convicted by the university of sexual assault would not be expelled.

• And now, I become an Eat24 customer… Hooray for open minds! Food delivery service Eat24 is taking an unusual advertising tactic: Instead of avoiding X-rated platforms, the company is seeking them out — and focusing part of their ad campaign on porn websites. “We’re always looking for new and unique ways to spread our brand message. As far as mainstream brand advertising goes, porn is about as ‘different’ as you can get. With the high traffic and low cost, it was an easy decision to just go for it,” explains Amir Eisentstein, the company’s social media chief.
