obama talbot's a privacy for security deal and the fans of a massive surveillance network exposed by leaks the web so vast and senior heard that even lawmakers who approved it say they're shocked. a love hate relationship the u.s. press is china over suspected hackers attacks as america's shaky recovery becomes increasingly dependent on chinese investment. and famine has moved to get lads' mags with scantily clad women on the cover taken off british shelves but critics call it an attack on free speech.

in moscow you're watching r t with me marina joshua welcome to the program al there is no way around it as president obama has declared but to separate fights privacy in the name of security and according to documents his administration has done just that establishing a surveillance mechanism unprecedented in size and scope web history nat habits and the call records of hundreds of millions of americans and people worldwide are reportedly being funneled to us spy agencies. now has more on the revelations. and a massive leak on the extent of surveillance on hundreds of millions of people dubbed breathtaking by civil rights groups and outraged americans more revelations on what exactly u.s. officials have been popping into the light america's national security agency has been using three of the biggest u.s. telecom companies verizon and sprint to monitor all phone calls made by subscribers

now combined keep in mind these three companies have a staggering almost three hundred million customers and the spying is reportedly done regardless of whether or not there is reason to suspect scriver is of any criminal activity and this is of course shocking this includes all of the phone calls being made within the united states as well as between the u.s. and foreign countries making really the scope of this tracking system even wider than american territory and of course this comes at a time after the obama administration acknowledges the existence of an n.s.a. and f.b.i. program dubbed prism in a nutshell this program what it entails is nine major internet companies that include google facebook yahoo microsoft skype you tube apple a.o.l. and pal talk have been used by u.s. officials to monitor photos videos e-mails and audio and all other sorts of information tracking a really sweeping scope of individual's online activity and the n.s.a. is of course you know traditionally understood to gather foreign intelligence so the tracking of hundreds of millions of americans online accounts on u.s.

territory through american companies is certainly a pugil revolution to put it mildly but because of the popularity of these web companies such as google and facebook for instance it's absolutely obvious that communication spied upon does not just include americans and overall just staggering all consuming monitoring of personal data that is a major eye opening example of what obama's administration has been up to we have heard comments from europe mainly germany for example about the need to clarify the scope of this u.s. program law questions are also being asked about the extent of the knowledge of the british government in terms of what kind of knowledge it had on the survey. sixty and how it might have cooperated i've dealt with the us on this as well and it's important to note that online freedom fighting group anonymous has leaked a total of thirteen documents curiously one of them the us department of defense so-called strategic vision for controlling the internet and on an intelligence sharing network which shares data with partners around the world and obama's comments on this major scandal have also been pretty curious basically the us

president in a nutshell says that absolute security cannot walk hand in hand with privacy and lack of inconvenience and you know putting aside the claim of absolute security in the us certainly something that has reason to be widely questioned this seems to be a statement completely opposing a belief voiced by our founding father benjamin franklin the those willing to give up liberty for some safety don't deserve either one but apparently the roots of the american history that the country prides itself in now irrelevant as obama's administration tries to wash off the amount of dirt released under a leader who swore by transparency as well as present of us practices of democracy to the rest of the world as absolutely stellar now william binney worked for the national security agency for thirty years and left on the eve of the launch of prism he told us the sweeping nature of the program only serves to encourage abuse . it's a direct violation of the constitution and always has been that's why i left n.s.a. in two thousand and one they started to do this and of course the congress and the

administration at the time was being baboo bamboozled by the intelligence community saying that you have to collect all this data is so we can find the bad guys and if we don't do that we won't be able to achieve that and their budgets have been almost tripled i think since nine eleven so what they're really doing is saying we have to we have to use what we have which was that which is the problem with power when you get power to an organization or to people they tend to use it and assembling this kind of information about all in all the systems in the united states or anybody else for that matter gives you power against them you have leverage now and you can use that power against them or you can you can use other agencies of the government like the i.r.s. to investigate people like for example if they needed or they wanted to know who was in the tea party they already have that from the telephone and e-mail networks that build those social communities communities built from that data will tell them who's participating in the tea parties the central figures and who are not central to the to the to the tea party and then from that if they're asking for tax exempt

status you can send the i.r.s. after them to harass them that's what's possible that's what this power of knowledge does it gives and that power to do that. now as details emerge of the n.s.a.'s vast spying and tell us how you think americans reaction will change well today on our web site we're conducting site vote r.t. dot com you can also participate in it let's take a look now how the votes look at this point so far most of those who participated believe that apathy will dominate the people are just too used to it all by now about a fifth think a clear violation of the constitution and to further our ages and navigable just nine percent and say it will all be greeted with relief at about the same thing it will shock the nation that takes its liberty as a given so do let us know what you think on the issue by logging on to our t. dot com and leaving out both their.

news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world seen from the streets of canada. showing operation to rule the day. cyber security issues have been high on the agenda between the chinese and u.s. leaders this weekend president obama already dragged into spying scandal at home in this the chance to press his counterpart of the matter of online surveillance the second day on the earth summit is expected to be tough as well as there's plenty the two need to sort out between them are these are wrong go indo reports. president obama and chinese president xi are invited on a historic meeting in the sunnylands retreat here in the desert of southern

california one of the main topics during this meeting will be cyber security now the u.s. government has been highly critical of china accusing it of hacking into u.s. military weapon systems and getting information from private companies here in the united states now to china has denied that it is responsible for state sponsored hacking and in fact internet insiders within china have said that they have also been victims of cyber attacks which have come from the united states now the united states has been very secretive about its cyber weaponry however it has been noted that the u.s. was behind the stuxnet virus which caused major damage to iran's nuclear facilities it is also known that u.s. cyber command is trying to recruit thousands of hackers in order to create cyber

warfare or to protect the united states from hackers themselves and even president obama has proposed in his next defense budget nearly five billion dollars for cyber security one of the hot topics during this historic meeting which will also touch on trade and on the conflict on the korean peninsula chinese president xi is also likely to raise concerns over the u.s. military buildup in the pacific something that has caused great concern in beijing china stirring things up in the u.s. not only over its online actions but also over its trading ambitions beijing as i am a media industry deal that could become its biggest ever takeover of an american company the scale of the moves got some business leaders worried but others spied golden opportunity. well this is a quote from a virginia secretary of agriculture a top a more and he thinks that he has stayed well actually benefit from the deal by getting

better access to the vast chinese market global strategy analyst george who agrees telling us there is no grounds to criticise china there is always going to be the segment of the american politicians and pundits that are always looking for something to criticize when it is involving china and and sometimes of criticism comes from left field with no basis whatsoever certainly in this case the. two like you say pointing out that chinese fork is not safe for their dead pigs floating down a river in shanghai and so on and so forth the intention is not to supply the american with chinese for but really is to. pour in china to says the growing market there for the high end products so again it's

a win for the american industry and it's a boost for the american economy qua later today max kaiser and stay there or look closer at who really profits most from trade wars. going to go see them on the shelves of any british newsstand man's magazines with pictures of near naked women plastered across the cover now two prominent feminist groups are calling for them to be removed from public side or face the legal consequences artie's foley boyko has a story. you're lads' mags it's a booming industry aimed at young men featuring lots of pictures of scantily clad women here in britain you can buy them in your local high street shop well that could be about to change because two feminist groups on to the support of several

prominent british lawyers say that these magazines objectify women and could underpin harmful to cheat that could lead to discrimination or even violence against women so they're pulling on high street retailers to stop selling the publications if they don't they say they risk being suitable raftsman by customers non-self workers a light but can you really be harassed by an anonymous told jacked sure they rank hotness of naked ladies and features chauvinist jokes but would removing them lead the line of censorship we hit the streets of london to find out what the public think shoes i'm older and getting paid for what she's doing and that's what i did and more and more guys are in those pictures as well as not just girls but posting the old toys and see things just a culture that we're you know i don't i don't like seeing them if i walk into my is happening before i walk into my local news agency and i've seen like just boobs everywhere and i have asked them to turn them over and ask them to put them higher

i don't want to see it should be a choice i don't think is harmful as well i mean it's for certain kind of person you reach that sense or any fun to press whether it's political or images or whatever within reason obviously this is a legal issues. is a dangerous is a dangerous route to go down editors on to readers. mog they're up in arms that argument against removing them is simple since the magazines became popular in the mid one thousand nine hundred incidents of domestic violence in the u.k. have actually gone down and if lads' mags it deemed to be harassment then how long before fashion magazines and advertising image is deemed to be harassment as well and what's to stop men from being offended by pictures of naked males also on the covers of other magazines playboy k c london. well turkey is unrest is running into a second week later in the program we reported fresh the riot police and anti-government activists in a stable i why of the country's leadership is failing to calm the nation so far.

amid aide a man's to investigate excessive police force against activists which up to you are the one said that they would be treated more harshly if it were a european state nationwide drive against the turkish leadership was ignited by a brutal crackdown of the peaceful environmental sit in at a town where doctors say at least two protesters and a policeman died in the us which was sparked by the officer of the tams to disperse angry crowds almost five thousand people have been injured nationwide one affairs. barbara slavin things. should stop and rethink his approach towards his own people . this was a small environmental demonstration which turned into something huge after police used excessive force against the demonstrators it's now spread throughout turkey and what is shown is that there is a great deal of opposition to heir to one personally and to the kind of creeping

islamization that he's trying to promote in turkey it comes just a couple of weeks after he had a trip to washington where he bragged about turkey's economic success and again talked about turkey is a model so i think it has done damage if you look at what's happened to the stock market in turkey to the value of the turkish currency clearly he needs to recalculate i don't think this tough guy approach is going to help turkey we've heard talk about legislation that would limit when people can buy alcohol and consume it in public talk about restricting abortion he's urged women to all have three children of course you know his wife wears a headscarf all the rest there's kind of a question of that. that as well and i think that there are a lot of turks who are still loyal to the memory of auditor and who do not want to have this forced down their throats they want it to be a choice not something that the government tells them to do. which is still to come in the program and nuclear power plant that can withstand

street in front of his house in the first a study of its kind the u.n. found that palestinian poverty in jerusalem has risen steadily over the last decade eighty two percent of arab children live in squalor three times as many arab families live below the poverty line compared to the jewish neighbors part of the problem is this war that israel started building a decade ago israelis say it's necessary for security and to separate israel from palestine but what it's also done is isolate arab jerusalemites from their traditional economic sphere in the west bank and so whereas once you had daily visitors coming from palestinian cities to shop in jerusalem that's all but dried up add to that the discriminatory policies which see the cities arabs paying high municipal taxes for poor services and it's no wonder arab jerusalemites are suffering the worst poverty rate of all time the jerusalem municipality has an arab affairs department but critics say it pays less attention and money to the very

citizens it's meant to serve something the municipality acknowledges but refuses to shoulder the blame yes. because it is very difficult for us to give services to those communities behind the wall there is a security issue with sending city employees or contractors' into those neighborhoods in the past our men were attacked while trying to provide the residents and services but many arab jerusalemites feel it's a smokescreen they say the municipality's real intention is to kick him out to make their lives so uncomfortable that they eventually leave his our lives here in the shell java neighborhood on the border between east and west jerusalem jewish groups say his family's house like many others was once owned by jews and they want them back. they are doing everything they can to get us out of the city. their goal is to make it just a jewish city with no palestinians and that's the israelis say on t.v. that arabs of jerusalem are citizens who are equal when in fact we're not equal
