coming up on our team more and more n.s.a. leaks journalist glenn greenwald gives us a preview of the next big revelation find out what country is helping the u.s. and its spying ask of hades. and the court battles for stop and frisk won't be stopping anytime soon we'll take a look at the latest regarding this n.y.p.d. pat down and how the new mayor might be shaking things up for the better more details coming up. and if you're short on cash why not sell your body bodily products that is believe it or not more and more americans are cashing in on everything from blood to hair to sorta legs will give you the numbers on what sells later in the show.

it's tuesday november twelfth eight pm in washington d.c. i'm a mirror david and you're watching our t.v. well edward snowden's bountiful n.s.a. leaks are far from over at least according to glenn greenwald greenwald is the former guardian journalist responsible for breaking the n.s.a. surveillance story and he says there are indeed more damning documents to be released only this time it'll be about our neighbor to the north canada recently greenwald spoke to the canadian broadcasting corporation's radio station take a listen to what he said the documents are quite complex there are a lot of the there is an enormous amount of reporting to do in canada one of the most active surveillance agency countries in the world because of how closely they work with the n.s.a. greenwald also took the opportunity to respond to claims that publishing the classified government documents harms people. not publishing the leaks puts people

in danger because when you have a system of government in which people can exercise great power in the dark that's what is dangerous i was joined earlier by steve anderson executive director of open media to talk about just how that power in canada is being exercised and what we can expect out of these leaks i first asked him to tell us about how the canadian and american security agencies share that information with one another. candidate in the u.s. are part of what's called the five eyes network and it's a very secretive but what we do know is that several countries this by several countries cleaning up the u.k. new zealand canada the us they all share data and information with each other and we know that for example australia has been used by then it say to do certain spying on certain individuals and we know that there's a lot of other cooperation there between canada and the u.s.

and the other countries absolutely and of course seen information that's collected is then shared with other agencies like the cia do the two countries work together and actually detaining u.s. or canadian citizen citizens abroad. well i mean that's sort of the issue i think but both with the n.s.a. and with canada. both these agencies are really they're secretive they're expensive and from what we're hearing all these leaks from from snowden they're really at a control and we have every reason to suspect that they do cooperate in that way in terms of apprehending people we know that they're definitely sharing data but how deep that cooperation goes we don't know but i'm hoping that the new revelations coming from glenn greenwald will shine some light on that a committee because i think canadians americans people really around the world have

a right to know what the spy agencies are doing and if they're violating a right to privacy in her basic freedoms sure and in the united states of course there are the house and senate intelligence committee that are supposed to oversee this kind of activity what kind of oversight is there in the canadian government and do you think it's effective it's definitely not effective there is a watchdog but at the very small office and this government watch has basically said that they don't know if canadians are being targeted or how many canadians are being swept up in the secretive expensive spying. and in fact that you have addition parties have called for more oversight that the liberal party here in canada has just put forward a bill asking for parliamentary oversight because really it's really small office and they have been so complain that they don't have an anough access to

information and they have all the government's own commissioner has called for more privacy safeguards and more oversight of. and steve how would you say canadian citizens perceive the threat to their privacy now how do you think they're really going to react to these upcoming links. well just recently we've put up a petition on our website at media dot ca and what we saw is thousands of canadians across the country in just a matter of days speaking you know calling on the government to create more oversight mechanisms to protect their privacy so i think canadians are various and similar to the u.s. no in the u.s. there is this really big kind of cross partisan coalition called stop watching us. and in canada we have a similar coalition the groups from the array the left you know labor groups right leaning groups you know g g p groups. speaking in on this issue and

joining with canadian so i think that as more revelations more and more canadians will be demanding answers and you know i'm really i hope that robert nicholson who's the minister responsible for this is even harder really come clean with canadians and let us know how many meetings are being swept up in this dragnet surveillance what information is being stored in giant databases and how secure is that information here and it does seem to be a very bipartisan issue unlike many others you know you mentioned this that pool the data are held by the five eyes which just so people know in the u.s. canada u.k. australia and new zealand do canadians feel in some way that their relationship to these other countries is beneficial to them and their security. i think from what i'm hearing comedians are really worried that we're getting you know our spy agency . is being used by that. to collect information

and share information with u.s. officials so you know i think that we don't the issue is we don't know how these organizations are operating we don't know how much of our information is being shared across borders and different databases and i think canadians are mostly just concerned and want answers on the shore and lastly steve i wanted to go back to something glenn greenwald talked about in his c.b.c. interview and response to the claim that these revelations would expose state secrets to those involved with terrorism and therefore it would do more harm to national security then then good take a lesson of this terrorist of long ago known that the u.s. and u.k. governments do everything possible to monitor communications that's why it's all up in modern used human couriers we didn't tell the terror as anything they didn't already know we polled people that they didn't already know or ordinary citizens

around the world that this spying system is directed not at the terrorists but. so what do you make of the argument that the leak of this information could actually aid terrorists like do you agree with greenwald and what he said on that. no i think yeah i think the most absolutely correct i mean. from what i've read in. terrorists and criminals have for quite some time known that they've been targeted surveillance they use encryption and that technology interiors and whatever they can to get around it so i don't think it's new to those both i think it's like remote that it's new to you know law abiding canadian letting americans know that their government agency that is collecting their sensitive private information you know we're talking about things like your prescriptions your phone records where you are where you're going to be your friends the fact that that information is being collected and stored in giant unsecured databases i think that is what is news to american think canadians and what is dangerous i mean if you look at canada

we've had over three thousand breaches of sensitive citizen information in recent years affecting seven hundred twenty five thousand canadians and the fact that we're now having agency collect even more information on us. i think it makes us less secure and it makes us more exposed to cyber criminals to have this information collected and really at the end of the day we have a right to know which information how many of us are being swept up in this giant dragnet surveillance sure we'll all be very very interesting to see what these upcoming mean during the all about canada i do appreciate you coming on and breaking down some of that for us today anderson executive director of open media and threatening. and looks like stocks net the cyber weapon allegedly developed by the u.s. and israel to disrupt iran's nuclear program has had even further reaching consequences than previously known eugene casper c.

runs one of the world's most renowned online security firms he spoke at australia's national press club on the issues of cyber security and cyber espionage take a listen to what he said how many computers come with the enterprises for he way stocks that united states do you know i don't know but i mean. last year for example sure. the agree that the board with the infected buy stocks. are the friends of mine are broken in the russian nuclear probably and once during this the stocks are sent a message that their nuclear plants network which is just coming from the internet in russia of the soul that is. represented. so the men send a message that their enjoyable network is bred to infect the base text that's right of casper's he is to be believed the stocks not virus infected

a russian nuclear plant that wasn't even connected to the internet and it damaged the plants ability to function to in fact a non connected computer or person would have to either physically install the virus or trick someone else into doing so and if you got nuclear plants were bad places to get infected by viruses get this cast risky also mention that computer viruses are even an issue on the international space station where malware on a u.s.b. stick once infected the station with a virus. and now to new york city where the policing policy of stop and frisk continues to snake its way through the court system outgoing mayor michael bloomberg has become synonymous with the program he and police commissioner ray kelly have issued their full support for the practice by which police officers are able to stop people walking down city streets question them and pat them down to

further than trying to practice the bloomberg administration has appealed of federal court decision from august that ruled the stop and frisk program violated the constitutional rights of minorities citizens the judge called for an independent monitor which bloomberg is challenging civil rights advocates have long questioned the constitutionality of stop and frisk is specially because eighty seven percent of those stopped and frisked are black or latino and these stops resulted in arrests only six percent of the time this from an analysis of police data from the center for constitutional rights now mayor elect bill de blasio made his opposition to the current use of stop and frisk a huge part of his campaign but now that he's elected what powers does he actually have to change this policy r t correspondent ana stasia churkin up reports. twelve

years under mayor michael bloomberg has left a legacy of the controversial stop and frisk policy six hundred thousand stop and frisks in one year which is more than the black male population of the whole city. the policy allows the n.y.p.d. to stop interrogate and search new yorkers on the streets without a warrant overwhelmingly in communities of color it became a huge issue in the city's most recent vote it is racist immoral and illegitimate it treats black and latino people especially young. people like criminals now new york has elected a new mayor and let me say it all of you from the bottom of my heart thank you one of mayor elect bill de blasio is distinctive positions in the campaign a stance against the police policy as it's currently used in illegal back and forth most recently city lawyers had a federal appeals court overturned the appointment of an official to monitor the

use of stop and frisk as well as several other new rules suggested by top judge stalled this court ruling you know shows not that it's a more complicated issue and maybe there are different degrees of of constitutionally but it shows that this courts are more than fine with violating the rights of blacks and latinos. well officials claim stop and frisk helps prevent crime in the city activists and victims disagree it amounts to police stalking intimidating sometimes jailing and even as much as killing people in the name of security. we're going to do there because stop and frisk don't do them good protesters against this practice have been taking to the streets of new york for years calling for it and i would say it doesn't make us feel safe it certainly makes us feel like we're in more more in jane. a fascist say we're going to jail for the flu shot he did long ago russians are now going to bust

a fool but you know what is there really a way to make it more constitutional as mayor elect blasio wants without getting rid of it altogether the only thing he will be ok would be a victim of the stop of a family member it will be. the new leader of new york will appoint his own commissioner and run the police force enough power to change stop and frisk but it will be an uphill battle to improve a policy that the n.y.p.d. has been using for decades losing the trust of many new yorkers in the process as they see. r.t. . and to the philippines where residents are still reeling from a typhoon that struck the eastern part of the country this past friday since the disaster only a small amount of assistance has arrived that includes two marine cargo planes that have a loaded an array as food and medical supplies at the top will be on airport but peano's crowded the airport many begging for attention to their various elements of

course that shipment barely scratched the surface of the resources and will be for prior to accommodate the tens of millions of people who've been affected while local authorities struggle to deal with the enormity of the disaster many local groups are taking it upon themselves to provide support our he spoke earlier to jesse edward we who lives in save philippines he described the storm that passed through the central islands and the efforts of alumni from the university of san carlos mel nearing group to help their neighboring island which was hit the worst by the storm. it was quiet order though the nice. wing is very strong that. our house. the trees are being. lying all over the area that nobody outside because they might see that shaking that shaking

a roof that we are going to sing are really good. we are seeing those ones who. are these really. well but. plane transporting his group's volunteers and supplies has arrived in talk labonte and they have begun to provide medical assistance but even some of the largest organizations are having trouble providing support united nations says it released twenty five million in emergency funds and was launching an emergency appeal for more money however government officials and police have been caught up in the disaster themselves and many say that has hampered the coronation to deliver much more needed resources today the official death toll from the disaster climbed to one thousand seven hundred seventy four though authorities say they expect that number to rise significantly now projecting

a death count of more than ten thousand this is likely to be the deadliest natural disaster to hit the impoverished southeast asian nation. and i'm sure you've never thought about it this way but your body is a cash machine this is all according to a recent bloomberg report showing that products like hair breast milk and eggs are doubling as hot market commodities for some cash strapped americans industry officials say people are hoping to trade spare body fluids tissues and other parts all of course for the right price take a look at what the going rate is for some of the stuff for blood plasma donors can charge anywhere from twenty to fifty dollars for a shot of sperm you're looking at about one hundred dollars for beautiful long hair ponytail you could expect two hundred dollars and for fertile egg that's the big money maker there's a potential to rake in approximately seven thousand dollars clearly this is not

chump change i was joined earlier by robin hanson associate professor of economics at george mason mason university to talk about this very nice market and the potential for its growth going forward i first asked robin to take a look at some more numbers that are. very telling of what's going on now visits to blood banker dot com which is a cash for plasma website are up by fifty percent this fall the hair trader dot com has seen about twenty percent more traffic and a shady grove fertility center where women are donating eggs has seen of thirteen percent increase in applicants just since last year i then asked robin why this is such a viable form of income right now. people want and need money people are hurting sometimes and these markets are getting easier it's getting more flexible easier to trade these things and people get value out of the other end of the deal so people

want to buy other people want to sell and so do you think this expansion could be attributed to more than just a bleak economy could it be that people are just feeling a little bit more altruistic these days could it be that there's just way more websites and businesses that offer these kinds of services i don't know but i guess that over the long run it's just going to get easier to do these things the more flexible markets we make the more different ways the more you can go to a website and arrange for it it'll just get easier to do it and without going through all the trouble now if the this market does expand with more and more people wanting to sell their bodily products do you expect that we'll see a decrease in the prices of these of these you know bottling products and do you think that could be a good thing or a bad thing or what are your thoughts on that well whether we the price goes up or down depends on whether there's a bigger increase in demand is an increase in supply i would love to see a big increase in supply to get the price down but if the demand goes up to then

the price could go up as well. and should we be worried that this could possibly further stratify the economy you know considering we'll see more low income donors selling these products i mean obviously selling to wealthier people wealthier buyers do you see any problems in this at all or well i would see this mostly as a response to poverty or a way to deal and help you out so if you were a poor person and you had a gold watch and we said you're not allowed to sell the gold watch sorry it has to remain a family heirloom that would hurt you that you could be limited in what you're allowed to sell so really if you want to sell your hair then it will help you to be able to sell your how it's it's not causing the poverty you tell yourself something it's helping you out of your situation of poverty if you've got something valuable that you can sell that will help help you. in the situation who do you think are the majority of the people that are going to be looking to put their bodily products out there what kinds of people would you say it would be demographic wise or whatever well the will be a certain just convenience if you happen to need money and you happen to have

a nice head of hair that you might sell your hair if you happen to need money and there's a convenient way to sell some blood that you might do that too so the more easy we make this the more it will be a matter that somebody will just do it at the last moments and do you imagine it might actually be difficult you know not everybody and there might be a limited amount of people that can do this because maybe as it becomes more competitive they're only going to want people with the best care or the best ags the best everything. possibly that could happen eventually but in terms of the short run we have this huge need for organs that in terms of kidneys and eyes and other things like lungs and so we have a huge need for those people to have those things that a lot of people died because there aren't enough organise like that available so we could increase the supply of things like that that would save a lot of lives out there because that would be great and you think we should you know continue this debate about whether organs should really you know be available for sale if you look at google if you type in sell my blank one of the first things

that comes up is sell my organs sell my kidney so do you think we should perhaps open the conversation to selling something like that but the question is why don't you want somebody to sell things so one story could be it's a bad deal right sometimes we want to prevent sales of things if it would just be a bad idea to sell it you know you just shouldn't sell it but if these things are actually helping people then the shame is that there are poor enough to even consider it and obviously poverty is a bad thing we would like to get rid of poverty but again keeping poor people from selling things to help themselves doesn't prevent poverty it makes it worse. very interesting points well it is a pretty crazy topic i've pretty you coming on and breaking some of that down for us robin hanson associate professor of economics at george mason university thank you. what happened if you crossbred of fish a bird and a mountain goat well according to sandia national laboratories it might look

a little something like this you're looking at the concept for what's called the multimillion dollar vehicle it can flies swim and traverse land even with the ability to dodge obstacles and climb wont on land plus it does all of this covertly and is operated remotely sandia is funded by the government which has a strong interest of course in developing unmanned vehicles that can do a whole lot more than just fly and shoot missiles the multi-modal vehicle is still in the testing phase but it may not be too long before you see it in an ocean or sky near you. and the dating match making site ashley madison is now being sued by one of its former employees ashley madison is a web site geared to marry men or women were seeking relationships with other married or single individuals the employee is a woman by the name to dorion silva and she blames the company for her development

wilson as a republican who just won a seat of the houston community college board of trustees congratulations dave he wanted to win very badly because i guess he believes he can represent his constituents better than anyone else now many of his constituents are african-americans and dave is a conservative white man but since he really wanted to represent the needs and concerns of the black constituents and was worried that they'd reject his lily white but they came up with an inventive direct mail marketing campaign he didn't he led voters to believe that he himself was black he printed up pieces of mail that featured the smiley faces of many african-americans no white people were pictured at all dave chuckled when he admitted that he just grabbed pictures of smiling black people off the internet underneath the people david written please vote for our friend and neighbor dave wilson on another piece of direct mail dave

a recount but it's not looking good for him so it looks like dave wilson's constituents are stuck with his just thieving lily white butt but the part i like best about this is that the crux of the story is that people if you're a politician you're a liar too if that black and white tonight let's talk about that by following me and twitter at the rest of him. and that does it for now for more on the stories we covered go to youtube dot com slash r t america check out our web site r t dot com slash usa can also follow me on twitter adam you're a david and don't forget to tune in at nine pm for larry king now tonight's guest is the actor rob lowe he'll be talking about his role as j.f.k. in the national geographic film killing kennedy and much more and for now have
