    To prevent shoplifting, many stores are keeping cosmetics, cameras, cellphones, electric shavers, video games and other products in locked glass cases – but honest shoppers are not happy about having to find an employee with a key so they can get what they want. Joe Budano, CEO of security device manufacturer Indyme, says putting products under lock and key should be "a solution of last resort." He cites data showing a 15 to 25% drop in sales for locked-up items.

    Last month when Amazon began laying off employees, CEO Andy Jassy said job cuts would continue into early 2023. Well, at least he was honest.

    Amazon will lay off more than 18,000 workers

    Roku was founded in 2002. The name means "six" in Japanese. It was the sixth company started by British-born billionaire Anthony Wood. Roku created the world's first internet-enabled operating system for televisions and in 2008 introduced a streaming media player. The company will now manufacture Roku-branded televisions and voice-controlled remotes.

    Roku announces it will soon make its own TVs

    Amazon Prime membership costs 14.99 per month or $139 per year and includes free shipping for Amazon purchases. It will now include free shipping for purchases made on other websites – but how will Amazon benefit? Perhaps they're expecting more people will become Amazon Prime members.

    Amazon expands ‘Buy With Prime’ to all US merchants
