Topics Covered

- Marriott reverses its decision to block guests' personal WiFi devices at their properties
- LabMD's request to have an enforcement action against them by the Federal Trade Commission is denied. While this doesn't necessarily mean anything serious, yet, it's definitely one to watch.
