Website lets you text ‘Game of Thrones’ spoilers anonymously

Hate someone so much you want to spoil Game of Thrones for them? Now, you can do that anonymously with Spoiled.io. Just pay US$0.99 to have the service send spoilers to whatever number you provide. It’ll send the messages after each new episode airs. It can be a rather cruel prank for family and loved ones, too, but that comes at a price that the small fee won’t cover, of course.

YouTube brings live streaming to mobile

It doesn’t come as a surprise that YouTube is finally bringing its live streaming capabilities to mobile devices. This now puts them up against the likes of Facebook, Periscope, and Meerkat. YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki made the announcement at VidCon after months of speculation that they were going to introduce this feature.  You’ll see a new red capture button in the corner of the app to start livestreaming. You can take a photo or select one to use as a thumbnail and then start broadcasting to fans and chat in almost real time.

YouTube has been doing live streaming for a number of years already so this is just a progression of that. And the company boasts they have better infrastructure to offer a better experience than its competitors. Kurt Wilms, product lead of Immersive Experience at YouTube, told Mashable, “We’ve put a lot of energy and effort into making our platform great, stable, reliable and fast.” Some of the creators who have access to live streaming include The Young Turks, Alex Wassabi, and SACCONEJOLY.
