in the street and selling drugs one from. trying to put myself out get my ged that didn't work and then a misdemeanor trying to get my z. . started getting followed home and started having police officers walk up on me where i had up on me sam on a government aim where i have been like this things like this. i hand this over so wes and a social worker i can't remember his name but they had their mom home they stop at my house in. some pain and told me that i was put through some type of test this and i was. supposed to be a l's going to shoot somebody or give also said dad i was put on a heinous a phony people. mr mcdaniel as part of our violently duction strategy as someone has generated a list of potential criminals actors and that. we are here today to inform you in
3:01 pm
effect that our computers have placed you on the hit list of the police department now since should you decide to continue to engage in criminal activity you know we're going to charge you and we will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. i guess we was associated or carefree as this was to be and a straight out a scenario go but we've put through a test and we both came out the most top the like telephone advantage people ask out now yet again our guys who how can i be dangerous for smoking weed i should know who does this or. the timeline shows all the criminal activity that their persons associate with if you see on the bottom those are all interactions he's had with the police either as an arrest is a contact as a victim and with it so you know who we hang out with you know where he's been
3:02 pm
everything to do with him that we've documented through police interaction scroll down please we're 1st got that this shows this is what they'll compile and put together and get back out into the field within 15 minutes so if this person is the victim of a shooting or of violent crime they'll pull of their it's got their criminal history. that's associate so everything. before it was all the criminal history involved with that individual so there's probably maybe about 2530 arrests that you saw on the subject. of people that they're documented is having an affiliation with that's again a pretty comprehensive list we can actually do even like a link analysis to be able to show how that network interacts.
3:03 pm
with. the idea that you could essentially connect all of the data streams that government collects in different ways everything from you know your arrest records to your contacts to your foreclosures to your mental health records to your social benefits and put them in a particular computer database and then be able to do blank analysis where you connect a phone number from all the different sources and go out you know several links and be able to see the world is something you would never imagine that is technologically possible now.
3:04 pm
let's summarize. firstly they are quite serious about fighting crime with algorithms. secondly robert mcdaniel is on the wrong side of the algorithm. thirdly apart from its developers nobody knows how the algorithm behind the heat list works fourthly in 2016 statistically 2.0876 people are killed every day in chicago.
3:05 pm
good enough for its. new place and you know the. thing is lost on these cats over it's. if they've only. made up once if. the person why next q. and the fukushima get here is you don't know what else they pulled off an actor paul asked if. don't pull off an extra if. soon if the consumers. they have like a ranking system which shows how many times more likely are they than the general
3:06 pm
population to be prone to violence so all robert had a rating of $215.00 which meant he's $215.00 times more likely to be prone to violence but robber wasn't i mean that paled in comparison to a number of other people on the list there were a lot of people on that list who are more than 500 times more likely to be party to violence and again that's not because of their criminal history that's because of the people they've been arrested with. you know this is what's really frightening is that there are companies now scoring every subsides that information's out there it's not really out there whether they're a felon or not but it is out there and so what the police here are doing is they're
3:07 pm
literally just purchasing information other people already have now that scored society of course is frightening of course it's not just a privacy sense that you're giving out this information it's about a government owning this information right it's a different situation in america we're pretty willing to let big companies like google and apple know pretty much everything about ourselves but we're more reluctant to have a government that's a good line to draw what's happening here. there is this sort of data convergence where you're really seeing private companies collecting this information and then essentially selling it or offering it through different services to law enforcement and people do know that information in the police don't have it the private companies do have it and that's part of where we are now as technology is collecting as much information about us as i can.
3:08 pm
i. like click safed. we deliver the data which generates information about us that circulate on the internet until the next update create yet another data set and so on. data mining endlessly. somewhere fairly lost at the bottom of the digital food chain there are people like robert mcdaniel. privacy what privacy. if august will influence this unto whom is a full comma and says it's now almost an xmas and you still have a democrat up just in time voyager does mind you and i had to say chef de compared
3:09 pm
to about is silly it doesn't screw up the consul vs him dish and he needs in for homicide once it's funny so he had a he needs i don't point to stun tom. of all the i'm going to build a is a bit find wisdom dhaba is still a guy i admit is often cited as baby becalmed off one man's one exemption of the obvious own to leave us young folks out at number 5 it's of stocks to whom it turned us i didn't even get a skit for dean on t.v. a tough act to station a gun in finding ya in house before dustman it because the initial baton with him scoring meant that the viet often mention c.f.e. good for dean come on happened just about some to shift some of it as the good ol of course an internet owns a leaping smile can give you a linda tuckshop to leaping smart alstom silicon valley.
3:10 pm
whenever someone fills out an application for a long they're going to be providing certain information. the be where software they access databases financial institutions courts. any type of baloney institutions be aware has the ability to access all of those databases i'm of genius so when a call comes into our dispatch center and it is categorized as a life threatening call or in progress prime then and there is an address attached to the view where software automatically searches all of these databases and then provides the operator in the real time prime center information specific to that address people that have lived their lives there their cell phone numbers prior addresses associates the other piece that allows for is to research
3:11 pm
social media and and to gather any type of information that might be in there in terms of threats. the theory behind the wear makes a lot of sense if i was that police officer on this on the street i was entering a house and i don't know who live there i want all the information i could but the problem is if it's so worse through these data brokers there just isn't really much accuracy so you might be arriving at a house in the address alerts as a dangerous place that may be so many lives there maybe the dangerous person moved the problem is accuracy and if you ever got on the wrong catalog in the mail i'm like why did someone send me a catalog i don't have children why do i have it that's the inaccuracy that comes along with these data brokers right they don't need to be perfect because what they're really doing is trying to sell products to people.
3:12 pm
well if the algorithms used in the private sector allow them to become more successful in targeting their audience to sell products then we should take advantage of that same algorithm that allows us to become more successful involved foresman in preventing crime. in the case of the beware software i think the bad far outweighs any potential good and i can see how in a perfect world of the software were fervent it could help make police officers safer the problem is. nothing is perfect is one of the things that the software company says that it looks at our postings on social media such as facebook and twitter there was one woman in another city who was flagged in the software for making comments on twitter about rage rage has
3:13 pm
a very specific meaning in terms of anger and violence but the raise she was talking about was a card game called rage that had nothing to do with violence or aggression or anything like that yet she was flagged as being a possible problem because she had some of these messages about rage and what if someone is making some it's about that they don't trust the police is that going to flag them as being a potential problem so there are too many opportunities for the computer to get it wrong and if they get it wrong coupled with a police department that already is much more likely than other police departments to shoot citizens that's a recipe potentially for disaster. taking up one question again. why are we forcing these technologies upon ourselves.
3:14 pm
the silicon valley's of this world are making a lot of money with them ok. we the users have enjoyed the comforting google and find and that's it. what if the internet fed by the permanent feedback of its users already had its virtual awakening. what if it developed its own needs and interests if it was always leading us to a more convenient technologies because we pay for it with private data. what are freedom was just an illusion. metropolitan police territory open he said. for us on that. day. much pullen police service and one of his own is all committed to me just enough again great. information in the case to you have or associated to it gang days need to crack if you're valving krevin you know stop.
3:15 pm
if you involved in crime and you know stop you may be targeted by police and partner agencies under a piece of legalization would join and press you may be convicted of a crime sent to prison for just being present when a serious crime is committed or even with those persons who commit a crime and you don't try to stop it you will need to change unless. we can help you to do this for you can speak in confidence to a police officer and or any of the organizations listed at the end of this no i would encourage you to speak to them as they can they hope you break any gang links your sincerely or a command of. the
3:16 pm
doctrine join in front was actually brought in over 200 years ago to stop people encouraging jews so if 2 people joining with us by pistols will swords this 2nd so that support them they can be done for the joint enterprise if someone is killed. so that doctrine is not actually lol it is doctrine adopted by the courts but it has an operational touch go into tradition in terms of the matrix. every reclaim news cycle brings a series of breaking stories this maximum jail term has jumped from 5 years to 175 years during the listening post as we tend the cameras on the media donald trump shouldn't be the one deciding who is
3:17 pm
a journalist and who isn't to focus on how they would call it on the stories that matter the most they will cause for closer to the tire shut down both international and domestic news coverage on al-jazeera. it really is the international perspective that sets al-jazeera parts other news outlets beyond tourists and out of reach out adding up the plates of power outages when journalism is about public service and making a difference in people's lives i'm amazed every day by reporting on al-jazeera and the places that my colleagues go it inspires me to take a different approach to how i got news for. banks love to make loans to some friends because behind the suffering a millions of taxpayers because most taxpayers never go away there's a new one born every single day and it is an emerging national missile that it will be visually request deflation of the support mechanism we created together because
3:18 pm
i happen to live in greece somehow i'm a sinner i'm a bad person. that's machine on al-jazeera. hello i'm martin dennis indo her and these are the top stories here. at least 8 people have died in 2 attacks in a city in northwestern pakistan 2 police officers were shot and killed in the 1st attack at a checkpoint in denver is small car and 6 other people including civilians died in a blast at the entrance to a hospital where the injured were being taken the pakistani taliban has claimed
3:19 pm
responsibility and it comes a day after the 1st ever elections were held in a nearby tribal region the u.k. foreign secretary jeremy hunt is warning of dangers to international shipping after a british flag tanker will seize in the strait of hormuz mr hunt called it a hostile act and is expected to announce further measures against iran on monday for now the u.k. is warning all its vessels to avoid the strait which is one of the world's busiest shipping lanes. this is about safety and security of british international shipping in one of the most important seaways in the world. that is why we are calling on iran to reverse this illegal are we looking for ways to deescalate the situation but we are also very clear that we will do what it takes to assure the safety and security of british and international british airways in the german airlines have
3:20 pm
suspended flights to egypt's capital cairo citing security concerns the be a suspension will last for 7 days the airlines given no details about what's prompted the move. the 2 main suspects behind the murder of a turkish diplomat in northern iraq have been arrested and korea accuses the 2 men of killing the region's deputy consul general and 2 other people say is believed the suspects are members of the armed kurdistan workers party of the p.k. k. . voting has begun in ukraine's parliament elections where the new president is facing his 1st major test volodymyr selenski dismissed parliament 3 months ago after winning a landslide victory he is seeking a strong mandate say can deliver on his pledge to implement reforms and tackle corruption and the world celebrating exactly 50 years since humanity's 1st step on the moon this was
3:21 pm
a scene in houston where footage of astronaut neil armstrong was played to a live audience pre-crime is next. the term pre-crime comes from this movie a minority report in which a prediction is being made about something an individual has not yet done but is going to view and a preemptive arrest is made by someone before they form. the london my tricks works like the heat lost in chicago identify individuals connect them detect patterns and social networks calculate the statistical possibilities. score people issue warnings keep an eye on.
3:22 pm
i'm doing an end to gang projects in the local area here in east london i have clients who are saying i have never been involved in the gun but the real issue is the subjectivity to get people on the criminal intelligence system the drum system and then how that then goes into the matrix to then associate people in certain kinds which are questionable so that the thing is who's checking the data entry who's checking those offices who commit those they to entries. i don't see myself as i got them while looking them but i'm on my dang number you know and said i'm just a part i'm just a part of the so. i'm just
3:23 pm
a part of the so called was always going to stand the dog you know i mean. always will be. if you are not in the game there as you were community are you from or from the answer community ok those are body snatchers of you know those are folk want to ask you a phone how can you tell me what i am because of my address because of our state is probably why i can only afford to leave that makes no sense i just honestly they got a job to do and they want to do it if they had a brief crime if they had to make criminals if they got to see here convince you to a criminal in provoke you to do it they are doing actually i had a friend killed a couple like a couple months couple weeks prior to that so i have only partly i can say is a they they label in a gang male. now i guess that's how i got to believe because me and
3:24 pm
a person that was murdered was so close but other than that i actually don't know the legacy i'm the a nun to the next q. they haven't told us what the algorithm is that they're using to identify people they haven't told us what that data is and there's no way to get off the lists that were up once you're on it so that oh that's scary to a lot of people it's frightening to not know how the list is created or to be able to get all that on the back end and they can say that you know we're using meth for use in science is a way to do it math and science aren't always right. if
3:25 pm
you use it will fail don't think it was just recipes and struggle. but i just picked you to see did you conform can often stern says that avoiding the 2nd place to. ski you feel that you feel as if the instructor he still collected for the both of you must admit it's for you the most remarkable. all data is biased. police department data incident data has the potential to be biased in a number of different ways and we cannot eliminate us but we can potentially offset it to some extent i incorporated in other data we have a number of different components of the software one is either as a component that someone can use at a police station the 2nd component of the software is a mobile version of the software that can be in
3:26 pm
a car or other vehicle on the police officers able to see as the car moves around are they inside one of these priority mission control areas. is actually using the g.p.s. from the tablet to track our location and as we enter boxes is going to update the display with information about them so we actually are just driving through a box right now which is about robberies and if this was our final destination we would start patrolling for about 10 to 15 minutes in this area is still relatively unlikely for any crime to happen in that location at that time is just that this is the highest risk location amongst all the choices that we have available and so it's the best place for the officers has been that free time. while we are positioning an officer in a particular place which means that they're going to be paying attention to that place that should not give them the authority to assume that anyone in that place
3:27 pm
is a criminal unless they see something that's actually criminal in nature. so it's about a point but in a good mood good stuff the city doing they're going to key you. bugging me did you do to me when are you going to meet the people in the. they do any of the old monk it's a totally new to do and then it was good to make it but only in some respects him and some from little time will stop when that's the law is even mentioning the essentials character. said i don't want to trust in a machine or. in jamaica myself. but. that's what i'm going. to show you that social skills. i don't. so see those in the most
3:28 pm
consequential he says give them a. double they're open that's all he meant and although i'm going to let go of the veil of good. we have generally been very cautious about incorporating any kind of person centric data into our models we believe there's a number of substantial problems with this whether that's a privacy concern or just that accuracy of the actual modeling. we're not using surveillance data and home slap i think that's a key question that our society is going to be asking and under what circumstances is it reasonable to take advantage of that kind of data.
3:29 pm
big data we the users and our privacy well. who could have imagined years ago that good can algorithmically calculate what i will do tomorrow . similar tenuously we activate things our person island until now everything that once was quiet starts communicating with the world and sending our data to the internet my tooth brush my t.v. set the trip under my skin my fitness tracker the toys of our children.
3:30 pm
i was not aware of these kind of technologies quote unquote being implemented by the police etc it's not particularly surprising because the technological developments in terms of policing bit domestically or globally is developing all the time and it's something that we're all privy to we can all see it on our t.v. screens especially when it comes to foreign policy and conflicts the rest of conducting abroad i don't feel about it i'm really concerned because i work with a lot of young people and young adults and children who are or have been or will be unfortunately in the shorts and most likely be involved in the criminal justice system because they come from troubled backgrounds or they're working class and the black people so if you can use some kind of predictive technology and software it's not going to predict anything but they think positive for them but if you want to
3:31 pm
make money with software they have algorithms to give to the police it's it is indicative of how awesome sight see is is progressing away from human solidarity and human approach to just squeezing people as hard as you can in any and every which way. and that's one form of it. then this is the one over there that this one camera over there is a. yeah. and then there's another camera just by the sea yes. as remote as last year in the park so what this time is the if they're not being used
3:32 pm
as much as then obviously they've got some kind of here in perth this really hit the ball to say people were doing something there and if you look at these cameras they're not the kind of ordinary c.c.t.v. cameras i definitely think it's the kind of books attached to you see think about it 3 murders happening here you know right as kids play it's crazy one isn't my sort of played last night let me be able to hear and that's why more incidents happen here when they do in this light and they all point the point that you think about how small this park is and how many cameras there are they've got full coverage of it. and so you know where these gun murders happening is with that they're not able to prevent in the in the intelligence they have. sting ray triangulation to this kind of stuff i'm not surprised that it's on this scale and i think there's actually we probably don't know most of you know the kind of
3:33 pm
surveillance abilities they have i think it's interesting that maybe some of the way that they experiment on gangs in the black community is also. be used in political protest employ who can i say sion as a way of so pioneering in developing it i mean of course it's just reflective of the way in which a new piece maybe target black now soon it comes to crime and how they're disproportionately stopped and searched you know. we in london and the other parts of this country our place service so you've got to know what that means means accountability and transparency and all of your processes and practices now i challenge that when i was in the met when i was chair of the black police association. i also gave evidence to there's inquiries that said that this was institutionally racist because of the way in which they conduct
3:34 pm
themselves now the matrix for me isn't on the form of institutional racism it is racial profiling it is unaccountable and as far as i'm concerned there has to be a way in which you can get off this system whether it's the matrix the d.n.a. database you know it got to highlight you know a process where people believe that the police service can be held to account. mad tricks strategic subject list no fly list selleck t. list terrorist watch list once on the list always on the list because the computer says so because due to the algorithm nobody is directly responsible
3:35 pm
because there is no regulator procedure against the errors of the machine because let's be honest nobody cares about what consequences the decisions of a program have for the life of robert mcdaniel are smart. is wrong is wrong to be profound is wrong to be saying that your son this is wrong to say you are a killer like. oh no. mention so scoring on just pushed him to listen something does not kind of human nature can twist the ticket does this man the force 2 for his house i'm for some and a for still for idea of you i'll go whitman ions it's all my niggas that shove that selfish gene an improvement on having facebook facebook likes also just become to
3:36 pm
be in season men fish see like i'm britney spears or get desperate housewives season from it plans of. homosex. decent in from out suleman up collided alstonville adoption likes to be and even and patient as relevant annoying 4 months of fear just came undone by myself so i listed for 4 more sucked in school music so as on a their money i'm til this time comes enough to list them it until this. giant steps he puts in to give a shite as code since he does his highs as a speech to him and all seem central childish and it does lead to entente cool but so going to sites as it is a russian i'll die from it. but. we don't have the person of the past to keep in touch with millions of people thousands of people social media does this a double a sort of how do we try to navigate and i think to stay in the peace a fully aware
3:37 pm
of this. i think ultimately they're going to be just one step ahead they're going to know exactly how to band or how to limit for example thousands of people attending a demonstration alesha is all there and vice let's just not letting imprinted in social media this affect the other thing you know who is sending a message is personal right is no for us we use it with the intention of we don't care we're going to they going to know anyway so we organize openly but practically i think is a really worrying thing because we have no way someone is a well they're doing and we have no idea of disco in which the powers they have and the technology they have in terms of mass abilities and databases. at some point i have stopped thinking about who might know where and who might store what about me why and since when. probably because it doesn't make
3:38 pm
a difference anyway it's like with hollywood computer games and television everything is inextricably interwoven with reality reality being just the medium of the basic code 01 like don't like buy don't buy guilty not guilty. just to remind you code has no conscience. you know i was one. of those. when i say a best friend bravo. has made on the rule in
3:39 pm
me. my dad put $2.00 and $2000000.00. test is that i was a kill. my friend was 18 to get you. right now that i asked the a look at the. way i think i'm his the. unknown. is wrong is is. too much. if policing is going to use software to predict what these people do in the future it's assuming that certain people with
3:40 pm
a certain history are going to do certain things and that's not necessarily the case because humans can change according to what support i want fossil decisions they make according to that support but again it's a metaphor for that but it's also it's it's it what policing is policing is not preventative it's no it's no it's not just in any kind of way and so it's just that as a punishing mechanism as a criminalizing mechanism and as a punishing mechanism. that it's only a start off a couple months ago a full 100 but now skip to $1500.00 that's a big no he's made 11 women crims right there so yeah who is that good food is it good for the street was it good for the police you got more criminals who are good you got most cases to solve you guys who think you've got more problem.
3:41 pm
see my story my not me nobody because it wasn't you. but what about when a guy shows him when he got your daughter you know jail you know when he's you now it's a ball. now everybody want to make it seem like. it on a face nobody has really come i can only go. so right now i think people are willingly giving up this information right not just what you're giving up on the internet but as we move into a world of the internet of things your smart house will reveal when you've left the day when you take your shower you know what temperature your bath is your
3:42 pm
television can listen to you your car will be able to monitor where you're going if you have like an on star system tells you where to go your cell phone knows all of those things and what you're doing and the conversations going on like we're just giving up this data to private companies in a way we're not really thinking about the consequences we're not thinking about what these data trails mean and for law enforcement you could see just how valuable that information would be why do you drink cold coffee in a hot car surveilling some guy when you can just use internet things to track them all the way through right this is the new world and right now the policy makers and even the lawyers haven't really thought through the consequences haven't figure out how to forth and adapt how to privacy laws to death how do laws so we have about telephone technology pli in a world where suddenly your watch is talking to the world and giving them your heart beat and and the rest of it are we haven't figured that out yet and it's important i think to ask these questions now i think we're at the very beginning of a very big conversation about what we should do with this new data.
3:43 pm
3:44 pm
robert still has a score of 215. smurf has left tottenham. the internet as ever learning and evolving observers surveys collects ses above the city as a friend wrote to me the sky is the color of a television tuned to a dead chime in. time to say farewell and go back home. back to my smartphone my ip address my emails my bookmarks my twitter account to my facebook timeline. welcome to the mattress. see the discussion was the deadliest year the aviation industry has experienced for
3:45 pm
some time examining the headline many foreign journalists including those from al-jazeera have had their licenses revoked their offices raided explore an abundance of world class programming designed to inform motivate and inspire that convinced me this was a conservation chance of a lifetime the world is watching. on al-jazeera. i know there are mostly quiet picture across much of the middle east the damage is at the average ready for this time of year some cloud just drifting up to the north of the caspian sea we might just see want to shout as well here on those eastern shores of the black sea as we head through sunday should be dry ice a woman and her 29 mbaye rouge and then on monday again a bit of maybe just a chance the coast but really nothing to excessive and we go to war with a high of 39 degrees celsius 47 across in baghdad now temperatures across the
3:46 pm
peninsula that are typical values for this time of year but we all sing for the next couple days is a slight dip in the temperatures here for abu dhabi but also into doha $38.00 celsius similar temperature on monday however it does feel a lot warmer than that because it's quite humid at the moment and so it really staying very on comes when slightly warmer than the. us in most scots and as you can see the we've got 27 then we head across into southern africa that's how much is here taking a bit of a dive certainly into durban 16 degrees that on sunday is about 7 degrees below the average 14 degrees in johannesburg it's dry average temperatures look at this woman's back up on monday so once again you see the average temperature of 23 celsius. talk to al jazeera. we ask problems of the signs of the instability is corruption
3:47 pm
we listen because i hadn't been so i'm on are pushing the united states and president trump into conflict we meet with global news makers and talk about the stories that matter no 0. the latest news as it breaks it is long campaigned against what it calls attempts to undermine the state of israel from within. with detailed coverage or power being replaced by new cool friendly plants all over the world environmentalists here the pulse of what's been said. from around the world this is just as visible above ground and on the surface and underneath. i'm just you know we're close to god just to become a trial was. used to lie on their expertise the snakes. mcalpin for their traditional music and down to adapt and survive the modern
3:48 pm
internet. crowd just hands the dancers on al-jazeera. and this was different not just whether someone was going for some of the spirits but that's not a mean trick i think it's how you approach an individual and i think it is a certain way of doing a conscious. story and fly out. the u.k. accuses iran of illegal interference in a letter to the un security council after a british flag tanker is seized. hello welcome to al-jazeera live from doha i'm on team dan there's also coming up.

a 2nd emergency meeting in less than 24 hours neve barker has more from london. this is the moment the british tanker was seized by iran's revolutionary guard in the strait of hormuz special forces dropped into the tack of the speeding bessel forcing it into iranian waters the $30000.00 ton stand in pair o. was on its way to saudi arabia nothing's been heard from her 23 crew since. the revolutionary guard who released these images say the tanker was being escorted by a privilege warship that tried to stop the seizure britain's ministry of defense declined to comment on the claim the detained tank is now at the center of a diplomatic storm these images were released by news agency linked to the iranian government iran says the ship breached maritime rules when it collided with a fishing boat and has been taken to the nearby port of panda for investigation. a british flag tanker was involved in an accident with an iranian fishing boat on
