said for free and fair elections. and we're still reporting from the outlets right now if you can hear behind me loud explosions. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then a glimpse something else and you hear or see some other part of it and realize everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry welcome to the big picture
6:31 pm
6:32 pm
especially poignant debate after the citizens united ruling corporations are people that are free speech in our elections for the downsides of personhood like accountability and those applies well so do you think corporations should be responsible for our producer patrice and sent you to the streets of d.c. to find out what she had to say. i'm on the streets of d.c. to tell people in the nation's capital what our viewers on twitter facebook and padded say and we're going to see if they want to keep or delete your comments. and we. should major corporations be held accountable in u.s. courts for human rights violations that they committed in another country so marina on facebook said definitely of corporations are accountable at home why not abroad keep it or delete it i would say keep it i would say if you're a corporation and you want to see your business overseas represent your company but
6:33 pm
you also represent american values and we have to keep that nationwide and also worldwide donna on you tube said if global corporations are not responsible to the whole world then it appears that big companies are in charge and can do whatever they want no they should be held accountable facto said big corporations need to be allowed to cooperate with any government in any country where they have interests even if the ruler is a ruthless dictator because it's about money no morals. every corporation has a responsibility to be held accountable in any country in any place. no matter a great ng us in africa and asia most people are outraged that a big corporation can be accused of a crime and never see a day in court all it's up to the supreme court now to let this case go forward. well thanks for your responses as usual and here's our next question for you
6:34 pm
earlier in the show we discussed a new report from human rights watch that takes a look at the more than three hundred youths serving life in prison without parole just in the state of california are the only country that has that kind of sentencing for juveniles so we want to know what you think should juveniles be able to be sentenced to life in prison without parole and so we think on facebook twitter and you tube and you know as a response just might make it on air. all right now yesterday we told you that i'm filing a freedom of information act on my cell phone requests to find out about myself because it has never know what you're going to get when you actually file one and you could find information about how their partner homeland security monitors social media and thanks to a for a request filed by the electronic privacy information center we actually did the documents obtained from that foyer requests contain a list of words of the d.h.s.s. is monitoring on sites like facebook and twitter so some of the words seem pretty obvious the word airplane but some of the words a lot less conspicuous so the list kind of just got us wondering just how easy it
6:35 pm
would be to make an innocent comment on a site that might draw the attention of the d.h.s.s. so for instance innocent facebook comments made by a sorority girl maybe somebody who might need a few more so investors of spanish class last class before spring break was canceled tied to black out before heading to mexico with my sorority sisters totes excited for margaret is on the beach with clothes that says unfortunately for kelly here that message is riddled with a flag or it's things like. cancels the lack out mexico a little less for you there and of course all of the. so basically just one little mistake here definite articles in spanish and he was actually tiger sell to the one of the most powerful drug cartels in mexico so how can i strip and speaking of trips what about this airport observation made by randy on twitter randy said if i was smart i would become a body scanner operator of hot chicks in line of the t.s.a.
6:36 pm
yeah unfortunately for randy the words smart body scatter and t.s.a. are also all on this list now what about just a really little simple tweet about a trip to the store some because just the last box of white powder don't have the target about the pregnant lady next to me was going to attack hash tag sheer terror yeah that's right you guessed it there's a few in here too the words white counter the word target and obviously attack and terror all those words are going to draw attention of the h.s. to your twitter feed and then of course there's always those late nights week after a few hours of the club those could be a little bit dangerous to them he said freaking with a fat mama last night britney spears toxic and noticed a suspicious package hash tag bale hash tag not into dude's so you guessed
6:37 pm
it the words freaking you the word toxic and of course this vicious package made because it is well and of course last but not least we have fun with these if you guys can tell what about putting up a quote from a friend on facebook so that you never ever forget it i got put down that mudslide grow some balls and take an irish car bob that's a quote from dave right before we have to take him to the emergency room although it is probably going to get you in trouble just for using the words my flight for using the word. car bomb and unfortunately the word emergency as well so basically what we've learned from this entire list year is that pretty much anyone in any scenario can accidentally post or tweet a sentence has multiple words that all draw the attention the d.h.s.s. and also the mashing together of the words on the list can bring you an afternoon of fun but seriously if you don't lock out already snooping around in your social media profiles those are just a few of the words on
6:38 pm
a long list that i'm sure grows every single day that you should avoid like the plague and i think i just use like three words right there. well whether you like it or not the new unified google privacy policy is here and to a fact that midnight march first for the basics are that google's new privacy policy allows the search giant to take its more than sixty free services online from search to g. mail to you to combine them all under one policy to make tracking your activity and preferences easier and according to google treating you as a single user across all of their products will mean a simpler more intuitive google experience sounds harmless right well some privacy advocates don't exactly see it that way so it's going to be exactly what the changes will mean for the average user and if there's a way around that and for those that are really bothered by this new policy we'll explore the unthinkable quitting google altogether you might think it's no big deal but just think of all the you tube videos that you miss and here to discuss this
6:39 pm
with me is ryan rattie associate director of technology studies at the competitive enterprise institute thanks so much for joining us tonight let's just start with the basics basically of what's going on here people think that google's going to be conducting or excuse me collecting more information about you but it's not the case is it. you know this new policy is about google using the information it already has collected and combining it with the services that they already offer can be targeted toward what you're doing are different service so the amount of information being collected doesn't change one bit with this new policy ok and so if i have a google account let's say i use g. mail as it can affect me more than facts other just average internet users of somebody uses hotmail or something well if you're not using google service there's a different company that's collecting that information although a lot of the other competitors to google have fairly similar policies of course if
6:40 pm
you do use google and you don't like this chain there are a lot of ways that you couldn't address it which include as you mentioned google and tire ok so let's go through before we get to quitting google entirely because that seems like kind of a drastic step but i think that some people might not exactly be comfortable with or be ready for you know there is a list of things that certain people have suggested that people can do for example clear hugel web history there's a way that you can do that online when i've been if you clear the web history me does that mean that it only clears the staff macassar from here on out they still track it or you know what exactly do we get out of this if you clear weather history with that means is that google will no longer have. records of where you've been on the web link to your authenticated account which is your unique id your g.-mail account whatever comes before g. mail dot com so this information will still be on google servers tied to your. address but that's not as identifiable as far as our ongoing basis if you're logged
6:41 pm
into google they are going to be collecting this information but you can any time clear data that you don't want either on the ground you are braces or on a i did buy a basis. ok how about the do not track feature we know it's not out there yet right they just said recently that it's going they will comply with it but once do not track is available what's that going to do for us that's really going to affect what google collects and what other companies like facebook and yahoo collect when you're everywhere on the internet it turns out that when you see those facebook like buttons or the google plus one button a lot of sites that's actually putting let's call a third party cookie on your computer which can know what you're doing across web sites this do not track header what it's called is about making it so users can opt out of being tracked all around the web but it doesn't mean that google's not going to be say scanning the contents of your e-mail messages for ads which they've long
6:42 pm
done to opt out of that or thought out of google tracking your search queries that's a different issue i'm there any like real nightmare scenarios with this new privacy policy that people haven't exactly experienced yet or thought of you know you mention that they've always searched through perhaps what you might be writing in your e-mails but might they also be taking some of the information might they sell it to an advertiser might they sell it to an employer that wants to look up the information or the habits of somebody before they hire them. certainly google has a lot to gain by one hand by doing the survey huge amount of data that a lot of employers and advertisers would love but google first can't do that under their policy they don't so that a third party is the only sure under limited circumstances why is that i think is because google realizes that the best way to said users elsewhere is by selling this data so all the money that google makes on advertising is connecting advertisers with the user in a way that doesn't allow the user to know that you're
6:43 pm
a loner all the advertiser knows is that you search for the term or that say you live in washington d.c. they're not getting any personally identifiable information about you google's not allowed to share that data on privacy policy so basically you're saying it's just still going to be an ad that might have to do with something that i wrote about that is no one no one is actually knowing i guess no person is knowing all that much about me but then why are certain people willing to go so far as to toy with the idea of quitting google altogether is that even possible i mean i get that there are other alternatives out there in terms of a web browser right there are other alternatives out there in terms of e-mail but it just seems like everything is so connected to it not to mention you tube our favorite thing which we have a little compilation of of clips that just imagine living without these guys.
6:44 pm
why. ok are you willing to give that up or how hard is it to be to quick google putting quitting google entirely is going to be tough sure there's another male company and another web search engine but you tube is in many respects tougher place but remember you don't have to be logged into the google service when you use you to sign out they're not logging information that's tied you you can also use as google mentioned in a letter to congress a different browser for you to good use for other google services so you don't have to necessarily give up you will entirely to reduce the amount of information
6:45 pm
they're tracking about you ok so the number if there's a few things that people should remember about how they can get away with this is maybe put privacy settings on your browser or just don't sign in to your google account anything else to see if you're really if you're really paranoid you can use what's called an anonymizer of virtual private network service something like hotspot v.p.n. or or. spider roque these are services that allow you to anonymize your ip address so google can't necessarily tie bad information back to you if they get a court order which of course is one type of disclosure that even google isn't allowed to decline all right well that's getting that's getting complicated now thank you so much for joining us tonight. our guys it's our last break of the evening while we can back rush limbaugh thinks the limited take birth control or slots so he wins our tools on war and on happy hour so named joe or matt so count your lucky stars and is obama a four door wearing latte drinker one senator certainly thinks so all that with the
6:46 pm
6:47 pm
6:48 pm
you guys it's time for sides to a time award as and i were getting into when most of noxious voices in the american political conservation rush limbaugh uses radio show to spit hate on obama women letty's condit is basically whoever else he decides to focus on that day and usually we stick nor it over the past couple days taking a little too far in for my liking when he's discussing contraception remember a few weeks back when dare i say i had an all male panel hearing to discuss birth control of the say the absurdity of excluding females and testifying on a panel about and women's health issue was a lost on everyone in the females on the committee made sure the eyes and knew it. what i want to know is where are the women when i look at this panel i don't see one single woman and they generally are women. have to get the rules i'm
6:49 pm
assuming that a lady had one mr chairman we're going to not have the right to have a wouldn't you want to have the right to make a parliamentary inquiry now specific female that wasn't allowed to testify that hearing was thirty year georgetown law student sandra fluke i would have to close the host of her own unofficial hearing just a short time later and she did allow flew to testify so in her testimony last it explained how expensive contraception is and she opposed the blunt amendment we told you about previous in the show so hearing this rush limbaugh just have to throw in his two cents on the hearing and on luc's testimony this is. a college coeds who's in a fluke. to gays or fortunately she will commit either cecily says that she must be paid to have sex. if you're a slut right because you're a prostitute she wants to be paid six to be so good sex she can't afford the
6:50 pm
congress if she wants you and the taxpayers to pay her to have sex what does it make. the pimps. because a student talks about the expense of birth control the need to provide affordable options for students that makes her a prostitute and a flight who wants to be paid to have sex but i would try to deconstruct the logic there but it just even doesn't make any sense it's really laughable except for how disgusting it is the rush limbaugh has the nerve to go on the radio call a student a slut and millions of listeners are supporting birth control which i don't know maybe russians are aware of but it's something that ninety nine percent of women abuse so i go by because all slut. now i wasn't the only one pissed off by his comments but the outcry didn't cause him to take a step back apologize oh no no no he just doubled down he kept his narrative and this time he directed his hate directly at sandra fluke and the feminazi. look
6:51 pm
interest you feel and she was the deal if we are going to be for your kind of two separate windows for you to have sex we want something forward and i'll tell you what it is we want you to post the videos online so we can all watch. that actually just makes my skin crawl i just picture a russian old fat man sitting in his radio booth propositioning a student to post sex videos right after calling her a slut chris newsflash no one is asking you for anything you rush or what is wrong with this entire conversation so for a time being a little woman for standing up against lawmakers they're trying to get tape how we should have our bodies rush limbaugh is tonight's choice i wonder.
6:52 pm
are you guys it's time for happy hour enjoy to evening archie correspondent christine for south and a classmate editor in chief for reason t.v. and reason dot com is still with us. so let me know when you come down on the birth control. and this show everybody has really messed up car that had to be taken away from target the next time you think of dating the bad boy consider we need he used it that's all that i'm going to say. i've really. well this was put out before she passed away and everybody knows i mean it was water cooler conversation about it brown was a jerk he was a target or futile and i mean he had to be escorted out of the stream you know it's funny that this is kind of the flip side of if we insist that our celebrities be role models you know what can you so. you know. why i just i don't think that necessarily dating a bad boy always comes along with you know addiction crack it just it doesn't
6:53 pm
always go that that he said ok version is actually hardly more like was it one section was it in like break up sympathy for you so you're marrying a bad. guy i don't know which one would you know want that quarter or do you certainly deserve. let's actually listen to something that senator orrin hatch said today which is just not president obama. the hard lunch category of the democratic party. and a lot. liberal environmental dreams ahead of the economic reality that working class americans have been struggling with for years. so this is an regards to the keystone x.l. pipeline idea had no idea that all environmentalists are hipster doorway people that latte and especially. mean if anybody is the quintessence or the second
6:54 pm
coming of coal i mean it's. he wears a. green he says no i. don't know about that but i do think politically speaking this is an attempt and it was kind of a successful one that they did with nancy pelosi sort of always calling her the san francisco liberal trying so i think it seems to me that they're just trying to put him in that category of people that the majority of america just can't relate to but there are a lot of hipsters out there yet but you know if they're even though they were very tight jeans they get caught in the single here by they can back it was like today i do think this is the shame of this kind of stupid political rhetoric and it's also by the way it's clear that orrin hatch has no idea what a latte is or for your or a head start but you know it was a you always do you know on one senator who was leaving what is or is staffers but i think it was a big mistake not to put the keystone pipeline through from obama's own ideas
6:55 pm
because it could be environmentally that it you know that tar sand oil is going to go somewhere anyway but also it was the type of shovel ready project that he's been talking about for three years and has them to look at it but it's not an environment environmentalists are ready yet. and there's no you point is there wasn't a debate in the sense of where they were going to put it in nebraska and what areas they would go through and so have you look at the current state of the way there right is used with this in the way of the reports were conducted so let's wait sorry. i should be going to more fun time because you're i think you're talking about ok i thought it's pretty exciting. this one either i guess. or something but you know parents go through there's a lot of twenty minutes i assume i don't know yet picking your child's name. meche have requested me to help find the perfect name for their. first bad hand pick
6:56 pm
think tank of leading experts on various fields that are academic and should help us to not get a great name so one of the roles that's rampart house is easy to spell but not too popular you know decorative names we don't want the first name having a we don't want or an r. we don't want the first name caption ask for something strange. oh makes me hate people and i want the times but this is all about a new study that's come out that turns out that the more simple your name is easier to pronounce it is then the more chances are that you're going to get promoted so i guess as well you know they haven't been able you're. going to really pronounce are there if you're names that you seem to be doing quite well let me put it this way i don't put out some consistently from time to time so you know these types of studies i mean it's always funny when people come up with other what
6:57 pm
other people consider stupid names at all from some perspective but you know in the end the fault lies not in our names but in our so i think there's something psychologically to be said about somebody who grows up especially when they're very young having a really unique name they feel like they're different and sometimes that can be good and sometimes it can be bad and so when you feel like you're an outcast if that is the case but sometimes it is i can see that sort of being a blockade to your path of success and straight a's and all that kind of something i'm really far reaching here but that's and i know that's what my parents would have a good point there but it goes along with what makes says which is that you either you know let it affect your negative way or you embrace just different. had a different name and he'd already be in a second term as president. as are you guys thanks for joining me tonight for the night so thanks for tuning in and they should come back tomorrow meantime to get the. and if you want to shop facebook don't forget to call us on twitter if there's anything that you ever missed you can catch all the you tube dot com slash we want to show where you'll find the interviews as well as the show in its entirety and
