we can make a difference by choosing reforestation for the forced cycling or just smart new solutions for still setting. is truly unique and. is what allows us to live and survive. the environmental issues global 3000 on and all. of. this is. coming up today. jobs for stealing money. packers working for north korea's military intelligence the united states for stealing digital wallets of currencies. explains why the regime is off to the money . silenced by the wall activists in india are increasingly being slapped with
2:31 pm
draconian rules forcing the government's policies and. besides leading police money. to fight crime. welcome to the. logical join us the u.s. recently charged 3 north korean members of the country's military intelligence agency with carrying out hacking attacks on banks the department of justice alleges of the hackers attempted to steal more than 1000000000 dollars worth of cryptocurrency from banks and companies around the world the hikers are said to be from north korea's recognizance general bureau or audigy be. indictment at the risk of victims of $28.00 including continued cyber unable to hide from banks on 4
2:32 pm
continents targeting over $1200000000.00 it also describes in stark detail how the d.p. r. k. cyber threat has followed the money and turned its revenue generation sites on the most cutting edge aspects of international finance including through that that the crypto currency from exchanges and other financial institutions simply put the regime has become a criminal syndicate with the fly which harnesses its state resources to steal hundreds of millions of dollars let's get more on this from tom your he's a cyber imust with the australian strategic policy institute in canberra mr urine welcome why on north korean government is trying to see and cryptic out and say. well it's a result of the sanctions against the north korean regime but i find it to get kerensky and maybe you think i don't more they've invested in cyber
2:33 pm
espionage capability as and they've proven it that it's not just from stealing secrets as a lot of countries do but also to stealing money. in kind of incredibly there's a whole string of banks have stolen money from or attempted to steal money from. my spine slee the bangladesh central bank with i tried to steal a $1000000000.00. and bean you know it's a self-sustaining program nowadays because they're able to raise money by the hacking. it's quite a change isn't it from 2014 for example when north korean hackers were accused of hacking sony pictures over the movie the interview part of a of one that didn't go down too well predictably in north korea have not put on hacking abilities improved over time. that suddenly improved they have a program to try and find the best and the brightest and funneled on into these
2:34 pm
sites hacking programs teach them an advanced math and programming and they funnel them into these parts into these espionage and and protect aren't stealing programs. a lot of hacking is really just having the organizational structure way you have a lot of people working together for a common goal it is. at this level there's no such thing as. the brilliant individual who can just hack like magic it's all about bringing people together and the north koreans have literally thousands of people working in this program the indictment names just 3 of them the tip of the spear the just the few that we get to see when there's many many behind them i suppose what's extraordinary about this is that a poor state like north korea with
2:35 pm
a heavily sanctioned economy as you mention mostly cut off from the rest of the while is still able to carry out such sophisticated cyber attacks. yes so this reflects the fact that cyber security is just poorly done everywhere and so if you look at the list of countries or banks attached attacked bangladesh makes go into asia pakistan most of them are in less developed countries where the standards of cyber security are a bit lower so they're going to be easier they've also done a lot of theft from crypto currency exchanges where it's really like the wild west out there so there's lots of opportunities to steal cryptic currencies so they really. they do a good job don't get me wrong but they also have the whole world of banks so they're not banks in a rich country they pay off the banks way security is poor and if the whole world
2:36 pm
is your estate you will find many banks way security is poor so it's that combination of a lot of effort combined with the fact that in general cybersecurity around the world is poor tom if you're an a from the australian strategic policy institute in canberra thank you so much pleasure talking to you thank you. for the recent arrest of a 22 year old climate activist in india for sharing a document in support of ongoing protests by farmers made global headlines but it was the application of the colonial us edition law against her that caused particular concern ravi was essentially accused of encouraging disaffection against the indian government a serious job critics say it is symptomatic of a government that is increasingly intolerant of dissent but the humdinger of activists doesn't stop with that law another one use against terror suspects has
2:37 pm
also been applied against those who don't agree with the government's views. 70 year old mojave has not seen his daughter natasha for 9 months now. natasha a student activist was arrested in may 2020 months after the federal daily diet she faces multiple charges including the violation of an anti terror law the unlawful activity through pension act better known as you. call father a former professor and an activist himself says natasha is an activist not a terrorist he says her high profile role in a women's rights collective put her on the police radar he claims she became a target simply for supporting protest against a controversial new citizenship law passed in 200-1000 mug. she was
2:38 pm
helping people out during the protests. people are facing issues or if they needed food or blankets at the protests there's a reason for the police to book her and others like her also under a law like repeat this was selectively done to terrorize them in. the past few years have seen a rise in the number of cases filed against student activist under these 2 particular laws sedition and the us. the latest mean to join this growing list has been of the shutter the many live an activist describing to no other anti people and say that these are brought to new people under the laws pretrial detention and it seem difficult in getting the many say it's high time these 2 laws get. government supporters on the other hand maintains that it is only the judicially that can decide on the matter of such cases. and senior advocate calling
2:39 pm
guns out this says these laws are being misused by the government to suppress dissent and crushed student protest the indian police uses the law and it uses the us the law recklessly and again and again and again because it gives the impression that both these laws are the most serious crimes that could possibly be committed and it gives an impression to the judge this person is a diabolical terrorist. and it starts off on the footing against the accused that i plan to set of course never misses his daughter now in prison for 9 months he speaks to her on phone every day but yearns to see her in person which will admit. i do not feel really optimistic a time i do not know whether i will be able to see my daughter or not i'm advancing
2:40 pm
in age and i'm not sure when she will be released from prison and she's i feel anxious about the possibility of her being locked in for a long period i don't know when i'll be able to see her. there was says his daughter has done nothing wrong he says she is a committed activist and he is a proud father. in neighboring pakistan in the city of karachi or come up with a novel way to combat crime a special rollerblading unit the idea is to have cops roll into archon much quicker pictures criminals and track them through some of the city's narrow alleyways. the training programs that run smooth as silk these people are not gliding through this compound karate for fun they're a team of comps made up of 10 women and 10 men tossed to stop theft and harassment
2:41 pm
in a city of 20000000. starting here this is just the beginning to me i feel that through this training we will be able to cut crime in the future i don't like to see the rollerblades going to really benefit us we can reach narrow allies very quickly where it is usually difficult to reach. them. and a new dia meant to close encounters. to states to better catch criminals who often sleep on motorcycles when you see what we have felt we needed to come up with some innovative approach to control street crime in karachi. when analyzed and saw that there are certain spots where crime incidents say for example mobile snatching but on a more frequent for example by snitching to. the rollerblading police are following in the footsteps of similar units in europe they're all fishel go out starts in
2:42 pm
march but the unit has already begun patrolling karate speech front. seeing them here in clean uniforms since the morning gives us a sense of security. because even in the daytime it's not ok here. we didn't have either but there's. the rollerblades have limitations though. in areas with poor road conditions will be difficult but on tops like these catching criminals with speed and agility will be just a briggs. and believe that today we have to pick up well if you're a poker one fan you probably know what i'm talking about the iconic japanese giving franchise started 25 years ago capturing the hearts of fans worldwide everyone has their favorite book of mormon but used to touch them all. over.
2:43 pm
and.
2:44 pm
it turns the famous like a bunch of the queen because i want to see a gemini with the make the last few years have been quite over. and learned on the tarmac when it comes to. a new hobby of mine i'm going on the river and i love to be in the news there are pros in the recall but when you've been giving your realizing it's just another way of living are you ready to meet them during the right. looks real good. about a we in the time that i've been in court. more than normal yeah back to writers seth rogan is not alone celebrity or not pandemic pot smokers are on the rise according to a global survey of $55000.00 respondents boredom and loneliness of the most frequently cited reasons. the same for consuming more alcohol take
2:45 pm
a strain or before the coronavirus arrived 6 percent of respondents drank alcohol on a daily basis that surged to over 30 percent during the pandemic. your health and well being are at stake plus there is the risk of covert 19 which increases for patients with substance use disorders that's according to analyses from electronic health records in the united states i totally understand though sometimes the pressure is just too much. at some point i caved in i couldn't carry on i couldn't stand it so i got something to do. deanna is addicted to alcohol she has done inpatient rehab and psychotherapy she had been off doing for a while when the pandemic hit and she hoped she could stay off it. her dog is a great comfort she also find support and alcoholics anonymous she used to attend
2:46 pm
meetings regularly and felt part of a caring community. when their hearts are sore to tag a vendetta on katrina i had turned my life around things were good and i felt renewed hope and then can the pandemic and this new world these new contacts were suddenly gone contact with people i was very rough the alarm bells started to ring on lead be able to go home i got more and more agitated and the cravings return of talks on the come up during the 1st lockdown alcohol sales in germany rose sharply in spring 2020 sales of spirits were up 30 percent over the previous year surveys suggest a 3rd of the population has been drinking more during the pandemic. d'anna got through the 1st lockdown without resorting to drink but the isolation started to get to her and in october she had a relapse and chapman klein a supply didn't just have a little drink and went straight for something stronger than the curb she wanted
2:47 pm
and i drank the whole thing of course really fast it was gone in no time and then i woke up right here was from a gunshot a half then i started calling people who are full of shame admitting that it had happened and know from a self-help group that i can may and even must call others and that i shouldn't hide away whole the relapse lasted for weeks and then she stopped drinking again that was quicker than usual she says because she had people to turn to this time several times a week she takes part in an online alcoholics anonymous session that may not be as good as face to face but deanna says virtual meetings really do give her strength and support and help her stay off the drink. she also tries to stick to a daily routine to help her through the pandemic creative work helps her pass the time. but given her history of dependency there is always a nagging anxiety as happy as an economy and i'm frightened that if the pandemic
2:48 pm
just goes on and on and the isolation i will have another relapse and i know that a relapse could kill me but so far so good deanna hasn't had a drink for more than 3 months. deputy of the german center for addiction issues christine joins us in your opinion which addictions are the pandemic exacerbating. definitely. this moron thank you michael i thought yes we are in restaurants but the reasons to change people drink at home in their own clothes they're worth because they're walking this solve problems . of our own health for how correlates its native name last relationships of the. pandemic and so we see
2:49 pm
a change that more people at home alone and. yet daytime which wants us yeah very common. so we see here very very problem that can be too. yeah through awful patterns. you know i was always told never never drink alone but you're telling me to a lot more people are doing this how many more people would you say are actually a risk of addictions during this pandemic. yes and we need what they tell us in the 1st we have such data force more. and more people. before our crisis or must they take even more snow we have some small others on via situation from 1st life and yes for trying to
2:50 pm

2:51 pm
positive out of this pandemic i guess is the fact that you can get counseling virtually no longer have to actually sit down face to face with someone which may be conducive to some situations or some people but which areas do you see being really tense or difficult to to deal with when it comes to the counseling size of side of things. if. you can't do more to get you to write more to such a help it's more you need face to face contact this is mom uppermost. on how they're facing this one thing i am really see more are very big problems in some other groups the house. yet many people who are sober since years relapse. all have to be very creative to stay in contact with a touch of why why why is that face to face contact so important.
2:52 pm
yes it's a very special problem to keep on earth which you have who you are you have to talk public person in. and face and. it's actually to raise our grants for one some people like me it's ok perhaps this is. all hell you can contact with the faith what would you recommend then for people who are struggling right now having a difficult time and who have. turned should be types of solutions or what they think is is a solution but may not be. our one move who needs help this market don't get how you can somehow unprofessional. they have opened us for problems and this is the 1st and the most important step to search and to talk. if you don't want to go through that. you can talk to you later if you can talk to
2:53 pm
a hard one to someone else you know to talk. to this is the most important thing to do to take in start to talk parking our problems marketing the problems of mass what are we are very very mind. you get if you are if you. invest our yes this is other motives as they're really the 1st big step thank you very much nice talking to you christine all the deputy head of the german center for addiction issues. and now science corps one of their it williams is being sent an interesting question that's been trending on social media from one of our generic future followers. does the vaccine make you in for a tal. since the start of the pandemic we've seen one corona virus
2:54 pm
minute after another so it's no wonder that vaccines have spawned many more this one though that m r n a vaccines cause infertility in women is especially worrisome i think because it appears to be having a real impact on vaccine uptake among younger women. like a lot of fake news that gains traction the infertility myth uses science to distort rather than to clarify in this case it twists the scientific fact that m.r.i. in a vaccine strain the immune system to recognize the structure on the outer surface of the corona virus called the spike protein this information campaigns build on that with a claim that the spike protein resembles a protein found in the placenta that protects and nurtures a developing fetus that means the claim continues that an immune system primed to
2:55 pm
detect spine proteins in order to attack and destroy the corona virus can also mistakenly attack and destroy a placenta causing women to either be infertile or to miscarry this is not true for a couple of fundamental reasons 1st the defense in the immune system react in a highly specific way to the proteins that they've been programmed to detect they have to because proteins are only made up of 20 different molecular building blocks . called amino acids but our bodies can produce at least $20000.00 different proteins from them and possibly a whole lot more so of course there can be structural molecular overlap in many different proteins which is why the immune system has to be so specific and
2:56 pm
2nd is the fact that the placenta protein in question turns out not even to be very similar and molecular terms to the viruses by protein so short and sweet there is 0 evidence that being vaccinated against cope at 19 affects a woman's fertility in any way and actually a growing mound of evidence that it doesn't. thanks for watching.
