Block Blast: the dark truth
Block Blast is a new addictive computer game where the player fits random blocks shapes together to try and make rows of blocks in order to gain points. If you don't have enough space for the blocks the game is over. If you visit Block Blast in the app store you may notice it is a 17+. I can promise there is no 17+ content. So why is the age rating so high? I needed to know, so I endlessly scrolled through the game’s Terms and Conditions. Then I found my answer: by downloading the game, you immediately agree to being 17 or over; then by agreeing to the terms and conditions. Block Blast can legally start selling your data overseas. Here is a list of what information they take: IP Address (your direct location); your phone’s make and model; information from your computer’s CPU (your device’s control centre); your WIFI network (password and name). All this information can then be sold for serious money to marketing companies and advertisers. So be careful when you sign up to games because Block Blast isn't the only one like this. Archie Verity

If we had a better salad bar and more L200170
No more pasta, peas! (For all vegetarians, this is the article you have been waiting for) Have you ever sat down to lunch, tucked into your nice juicy meat, and noticed that your veggie friend at your table had pasta? DID YOU KNOW? 43% of Londoners are vegetarian, vegan or pescatarian?
