7:01 pm
a win at leverkusen putting them top of the table over the winter break. and welcome to the show. and germany is joining several other european countries and placing a travel restriction on people coming from the u.k. as the new variation of corona virus spreads rapidly there in germany will also impose restrictions on travel from south africa where the new strain has been identified as well and german authorities a plan to stop flights from the u.k. at midnight on sunday ireland belgium the netherlands austria and italy have also announced restrictions on flights ferries and trains the travel restrictions come after british prime minister boris johnson on saturday announced tougher measures to combat the new virus strain officials say while the new mutation is much more
7:02 pm
easily transmitted it's not thought to be any more dangerous. i've got more from good of you correspondent nina and i give us the latest what more do we know about what restrictions germany is planning. in spawn germany's health minister announced on sunday evening that all passenger flights coming from the u.k. will be banned from entering as of midnight on sunday night and on monday the government will issue a government order that restricts all travel from south africa and the u.k. so that also includes possibly increased border ticks and train travel and not just flights and as of now there is intensive checks already applying to all passengers arriving from the u.k. and that is in line with what the hell's organization has said looking at this new
7:03 pm
variant of the fire is the world health organization has warned all e.u. states to impose stricter controls so that this virus doesn't spread across the continent. as you say all these measures are presumably in place to stop the virus strain from coming to continental europe but is it already present in germany we don't know on sunday morning last news germany's leading viral exists and the one of the leading global experts when it comes to costs who said that it wasn't yet registered in germany's labs and on sunday evening in spawn the health minister confirmed that but of course there's no way of knowing quite yet and there are a lot of this variant could and germany so they say they say that there are and they are in close contact with researches in britain to find out more about this
7:04 pm
area and and that extremely nervous deja vue correspondent and you know thank you very much for your reporting. concern about the new strain has led a british prime minister boris johnson into reverse plans to ease coronavirus restrictions over the christmas period he's imposed an effect of a lockdown on london and on southeast england the move has made the capital which is usually bustling with shoppers at this time of year are almost unrecognizable millions of people have been forced to cancel their christmas plans under the new restrictions as britain recorded almost 36000 new cases on sunday the highest a daily rises since the start of the pandemic. britain's health minister says the government had to take a quick action this virus the new strain was out of control we've got to get it under control and the way that we can do that the only way you can do that
7:05 pm
is by restricting social call we'll have to get more from mohamed when you're here's a viral adjuster from lancaster university in the u.k. dr minyard how concerned should we be about this new coronavirus strain. well thank you very much claire for asking this one because i mean it's really important that any mutation that occurred into the spite of being but that makes the surface of the virus has some concerns because through this spike but in the virus and what a body and become successful so over the time we have noticed that so many mutations outlook or which have relatively little or no impact but this particular variant that have emerged now has 23 mutations which are significant in terms of the disease process ability so therefore it seems like this why this is more successful and more fitter this means that it is possible for one person to another person and from one community to enter the community quite effectively and of course the big question everyone will want to know as we see a light at the end of the tunnel is will be already developed vaccines to still be effective. well that is again very important to what i just want to highlight is
7:06 pm
that event vaccine work vaccine doesn't work against one part of the virus it works against different components of the virus for example there are more than 2030 different sites within this fight but again against with the vaccine is effective so if one or 2 mutations occur still the other one would protect against the infection too as it stands now the mutation that we are going to fire here in the u.k. have literally no impact on to the vaccine effectiveness so therefore the vaccine can be and developed by the pfizer we don't know or that's because anything would have no impact on to the this why the secretary on raising the immunity and also to really neutralize this waras i am sure that's a relief for many to share but look at this mutation was 1st discovered back in september do you think the british government should have reacted earlier. well this information was provided to the british government in the early october that the 1st cases were reported in can't region but then it's
7:07 pm
a crowded quitely in the other part of the inlet and since then the government has been reporting on it with this inspection and we have decided to security have been going to find those mutations that are becoming more prominent but usually virus take a little bit of time before they become the dominant strains within the populations so it was just just a few weeks before that the virus became so probably never sold off to an identified well because do cases where belonging to this strain and that is how it made to the surface and the action start to take place thank you very much mohamed when you're just from a lancaster university thanks. lawmakers in the u.s. have struck a late night agreement on a multi-billion dollar coronavirus relief package clearing the way for the bill to be voted on by both chambers of congress before a sunday deadline the stimulus plan worth nearly a trillion dollars has been fought over for months if passed it would extend benefits for struggling businesses and millions of unemployed which are due to

7:16 pm
would like any information on the crawl of virus or any other science topic you should really check out our podcast so you can get it wherever you go your podcast you can also find us at. science. fake passports drax and weapons in the dark with illegal activity is just a click away why is it so hard to crack down on criminal activity there and can be used for good the dark web our topic today on shift. in. the dark what is an alternative to the regular internet it's a version that anonymous and encrypted this makes it the perfect space to sell illegal goods like weapons a recent study found that most users engaged in illegal activities on the dark web
7:17 pm
live in democratic societies the most common illegal transactions are drugs experts estimate that tracks make up 2 thirds of transactions on the dark web so i tried it out how easy is it to buy drugs on the dark web. at 1st glance it looks just like a regular online shop with product images and customer reviews but the products are illegal heroin and all kinds of weapons. is head of the cyber security and the little defense department at the institute. she shows us where drugs are sold. on the dark web looking is legal only buying is a crime in germany the u r l's of these websites can be found on the regular internet or clear web it's better organized than many of the legal marketplaces there is much more information the buyers are much more reliable the feedback is much better bunch more money is
7:18 pm
involved and also much more is at stake if you make a mistake you go to jail so you have to make sure that it's. secure with just a few clicks customers can buy cannabis one of the most popular drugs on the dark web it would be sent to the provided address but that means trusting the vendor to delete it once the product has been delivered payment is done in the cryptocurrency bitcoin so the customer remains anonymous but how likely is it for the product to actually arrive in the end every vendor here has a set of customers and if he doesn't deliver the goods his reputation will be damaged no one will buy from him so the whole system and dark know it is based on reputation that's why typically the service is good and if you order something it will arrive the customer is on the dark web and not 100 percent anonymous so they're not completely protected from prosecution because the location and ip addresses are encrypted it makes criminal prosecution much harder. another
7:19 pm
challenge is the lack of national borders on the dark when. we never really know what country the service are actually located in it's not just a technological challenge but a judicial challenged too. so we need to cooperate with other law enforcement agencies and work across various fields and speciality it's really a big challenge on the. 19 there will finally successful working with international investigators the federal criminal police invest barn was able to prosecute one of the world's largest drug vendors on the dark web wall street market the servers were eventually discovered in this form of germ. located in a small town in the west of germany. now that's surprising you'd never expect to find the servers in a place like that we spoke to somebody who buys trucks on the dark web he told us that he feels much safer buying drugs on the dark wet than on the street we also
7:20 pm
asked him whether he's scared of being caught by the police more on that soon on our you tube channel. in the dark where be users are anonymous when we surf the internet we've trace us behind everywhere even when we use browsers in incognito mode like firefox we're not really surfing anonymously originally the dark web was created by the us military to help intelligence agencies communicate and on them is today anyone can access it and in the many makes the dark web useful for illegal transactions and it also allows political activists to move about freely online all they need is a certain software here's how it works. the best known way of accessing the dark web is by using the tour project a worldwide network of servers. the project is to defend yourself against trucking and surveillance and circumvent censorship wherever you are in the internet he wrote tracked and somebody spies on you and tor tries to tries to prevent.
7:21 pm
tor employs a technique called onion routing which uses multiple layers of encryption like an onion this ensures the users anonymity all search queries run through an extensive network of servers called tor nodes this way the user's ip address a unique identifier is only shared with the 1st node from then on it's the nodes ip address that's use the more notes the query runs through the harder it becomes to trace back its origins which protects the user's identity more than 2000000 people use tor browser every single day activists like you. are on a mission to ensure that the technology behind tor is standard in every browser so that means anyone could surf the web and honestly that actually sounds pretty good to me this is already standard on the dark web however anonymity can also protect people engaging in illegal activities like pedophiles in recent years the german police have to cover at several different forums for this one example was the

see it happen on the same scale that we do today simply because people would run a much higher risk of running into somebody that might actually report them to the police. and i think this anonymous online exchange helps people encourage each other positive. and the other problem for investigators is that in order to access these platforms new users often need to submit new material that means the police would have to share images of children being sexually abused just for been in many countries of course from 2020 onward however the german police are allowed to use computer generated images of children that aren't real when a dark work forum is shut down many years are simply move on to the next one that's why it is especially important to prosecutor. to investigate a lot. it may have been if we keep breaking up more of these structures then we might be able to have a large impact by unsettling the users some might even say it's a bit risky maybe i shouldn't do this anymore i think this would give us the upper

heavily censored the use of social media and take away our credit ations of journalists and so communicating through alternative means and circumventing the. censorship tools has become really critical. i take freedom of speech seriously journalists rely on the dark whip to work and to be protected from state control for this reason he said it not from reporters without borders fast that we shouldn't simply think of the dark web as being just the dark side of the internet and the document definitely has an image problem. the term brain but those aspects of a sudden technology in a way to save us is about illegal activity online and it's not just stopped fundamentally it's an anonymous nation tool and that enables both legal activity and illegal activity but it's really critical to journalists and was the blowers around the world for we need to talk about the positive aspects much more

prominently as well i think the term dark whip is misleading the word dark suggests illegal activity that it's actually just a network that offers more user anonymity what do you think does the dark work just have a bad reputation could it be the internet of the future or it should be closely monitored for illegal activity let us know what you think on you tube or facebook i buy and see you soon.
