Tesla's new interiors are now vegan-friendly

It's not hard to assume that some people would buy a Tesla for its eco-friendly powertrains. But once you decide to get one of these, one of the decisions you have to make is fitting the interiors with leather (or as Mashable puts it, "skin of deceased cows") or regular cloth. You spend so much money on one of these machines so why can't you get something more fitting of the cars' image? Tesla has come up with a new vegan-friendly faux leather they call Ultra White. 

“We find that customers enjoy both leather and nonleather options for their Teslas,” Tesla spokesperson Khobi Brooklyn, told the New York Times. “We are committed to giving customers the ability to build the Tesla that meets their needs and lifestyle choices.”

'Heroes Reborn' won't live past season 1

If you wanted more Heroes Reborn, you're in for a bit of a disappointment. The series won't be coming back after it wraps its 13-episode season. NBC Entertainment President Bob Greenblatt told reporters the news at the Television Critics Association winter previews on Wednesday. It's not entirely surprising that the series will just be a one-off thing as ratings for the show kept going down after the series premiere. It would seem people want to leave Heroes as it is.

Netflix to crack down on VPN users

Netflix will not be taking kindly to VPN users now. After launching in over 190 countries, Netflix plans to take a more proactive approach in blocking VPN users who spoof their location to get access to content not licensed  in their country. 

The company is said to be using "evolving" proxy detectors, which are reported similar to what other firms do. Those who don't use proxies should not see any difference with how they use the service. They don't take issue with account sharing, though. What they are discouraging is VPN use. Netflix has promised they're working on bringing their entire content library to everyone. But with the Netflix Everywhere launch, that might take some time.
