Is this the end for social media influencers?
What once had companies falling over themselves to capture online stars might be a thing of the past. Is the age of social media influencers coming to an end? Plus, you probably get the occasional Facebook friend request you donât recognize and may not be sure how to respond. Learn how to spot a fake account. This episode of The Kim Komando Show aired on Bloomberg TV on Saturday, Nov. 2.
I don't trust Facebook and you shouldn't either
It's no secret Kim isn't a fan of Facebook's data-hungry practices and lax hold on users' private information. That's why Mark Zuckerberg's newest venture is even more concerning. Facebook recently purchased a mind-reading tech company (yes, you read that right) and if you think it's a good idea, think again.

Whatever happened to the creator of 'Calvin and Hobbes?'
So many people remember this legendary comic strip from their childhood. Who can forget waking up Sunday mornings, opening up the newspaper to the best section and reading the incredible, albeit short, tales of a boy and his tiger? Ever wonder what happened to the man behind the pen? What happened to Bill Watterson?
You never noticed this part of one iconic Beatles song
The Beatles are part of the zeitgeist of America. The Fab Fourâs music has been a landmark in the industry for over half a century, and some of those songs have become timeless in their own right. "Strawberry Fields" is one of those songs. What you may not know is that right in the middle of the song, something happens to the music. Once you hear it, it can never be unheard.

Kim's chosen VPN will help you shop and bank safely online
Big tech companies are supposed to safely handle our personal online data, but now theyâre getting into the political game. I donât want to be any part of that and neither should you. Thatâs why I trust and use ExpressVPN. These big tech companies match your internet activity to your identity or location by using your public IP address. But with ExpressVPN, no one can see your IP address. No one.
