Dating apps
Dating apps offer seemingly endless potential matches at your fingertips, turning an intimate experience into something that feels more like a video game. But because users hide behind virtual profiles, it's easy to ghost, harass, and view others as non-human — and now that bots are populating these platforms, some actually are. As the industry continues to grow, some experts question whether dating app companies are really interested in helping people find love, or if they have an incentive to keep people in an endless cycle of searching and matching without any real connection.
Child marriage
In most U.S. states, there are still laws on the books allowing children to get married. Advocates are working hard to change that, but they're running into some surprising opposition — on both sides of the political spectrum.
Non-monogamy
"One big orgy": That's the stereotype about the lifestyle of consensual non-monogamy — an arrangement where committed partners agree to have relationships with other people. But in this CBSN Originals documentary, people who have practiced non-monogamy for years say it's not all wild sex — or even all that wild. It takes a lot of work and carries a lot of stigma. And it's more popular than you may think.
The faces of family separation
CBS News takes viewers inside the real-life challenges facing migrant families split apart by the Trump administration's "Zero Tolerance" policy. The documentary provides an immersive look at the hotly debated issue through the eyes of those impacted the most.

Mark Phillips talked with the writer about how his "secret world" hadn’t changed all that much, and with London tailor Douglas Hayward, who served as a source of inspiration for the British expat who finds himself in the middle of a plot in crime-and drug-ridden Panama City, in le Carré's novel, "The Tailor of Panama."
