and sing the brags that vote through social media probably yes sure i mean i believe all of this it's russia they're crazy right russia was accused of intervening in the french election yet you know why i believe that to the german election sure i catalonia separatism yeah yeah i believe that to all take oliver how about sending bots after a star trek star trying to take him down with sexual allegations star check no star wars i would believe if i had my doubts about box so i would say no. they were actually accused of that was. russia hacked into the us irish and british power grids fake russia was influencing the braggs it vote through social media fake russia hacked into cataloging a separatism and was promoting cataloging a separatism in spain real how about buying ads on social media in order to

influence u.s. public opinion yeah yeah why not make up the budget actually all of those allegations were leveled against russia do you believe that do you think that they're actually doing these kind of things from what the seventeen u.s. . intelligence agencies syndicate and the strong possibility that they did i feel it's just i saw news that to sell newspapers people just run and one story then put it on everything else that listeners showed new yorkers is dwarfed from an actual file of things that russia has been accused of it turns out that if you point the finger at the kremlin you can find a convenient scapegoat for almost any trouble that you're dealing with they will mop and artsy new york. to europe rise violent crime in germany the region may be linked to an increase in migrants according to a government backed study what is it really that simple. took a closer look. why have reports of violent crime in one german state increased by more than ten percent in the last two years but this is exactly what

a group of criminologist said stuart university of applied science sitar to find and what they established is that there is a link between the increased violent crimes in lowest sex to me and the influx of migrants but the authors say there are a number of important contributing factors the first and foremost is the age of the migrants most of man between the ages of fourteen and thirteen now generally speaking people in this age bracket are more likely to commit acts of a vine and nature than people in other age groups secondly where they come from is important migrants who come from syria iraq and afghanistan tend not to carry out the same number of violent acts as migrants for example that are coming from north africa and then third what is also relevant is the fact that there is a lack of women among the migrants only

a quarter of migrants are female which means that you have groups of young men without their wives their mothers will be sisters and they are more likely to carry out acts of a violent nature now these findings do reflect earlier reportings that suggests that there is an increase in acts of a violent nature that are connected to the migrant crisis since two thousand and fifteen more than a million migrant have a arrived here in germany that's say that wolf is there is an important mitigating factor and misses and it could be that people may be more likely to report acts violent acts that are carried out by migrants than if they were carried out by local germans not criminologists believe that only integration isn't the solution and should bring down the high level of crime rates among my goodness. from. our point of view the study shows once again that we must not abandon those who come to

us but actively provide integration that means for example compulsory and comprehensive integration in the language courses places in kindergartens in schools let's ask people here in berlin what they think other things today he would say that this is coming from both sides the more people that come the more the dissatisfaction will be from those who have lived here long or i think that's something that should be driven by politics but then it at the end of the day it's to us as part of the society that we all need to change and integrate people better by by changing our behavior and that he colors really of it one of the more radical solutions would be to deport the immigrants from germany interracial stuff it's all day they need to work at some point being an immigrant and working it's a different story we're kind of try to to get them get them something worthwhile to do while a solution to the problem continues to be sort of a sad reality is that the violent crimes continue. our team.

in the chair of respond academy time for the duration plays the same behavioral patterns can be found among any group regardless of whether they've got a migrant background or not. what is written in the report is basically common sense that people without any perspective with living standards which are very hard are more common to go into the thinking about criminal activities if you talk about integration of immigrants it's a dialogue and once for integration you have to build perspectives and give them the chance to be one part of the society but on the other hand you have to hear the worries about germans and find together with those people who have worries solutions which can help for

a better future together meantime germany started the year by introducing a new law to tackle hate speech but it's already been criticized for blocking the defeat of once a terrible magazine and can't explain supply and that kind of legislation could be a legal minefield. well governments are now trying to regulate content on the internet by pushing the online world to crackdown on his speech extremism and of course the mysterious bots and trolls who somehow manage to elect presidents but so far there are attempts haven't exactly been successful for example in germany a new online hate speech laws only came into force on monday and twitter has already banned a parody account after users reported it as hate speech but under the law platforms have to delete violent or slanderous content by a certain deadline or face a fine up to sixteen million dollars well the first case a far right politician of the alternative for germany party had her twitter account briefly suspended after users fired her tweets as hate speech against muslims now

that's after she lashed out against german police for putting out a new year's tweet in arabic and prosecutors are now examining whether or not her tweets do in fact incite hatred then on top of that twitter banned the account of a magazine that was actually mocking her but in doing so repeated her line now the magazine's editor said he was shocked by the decision and the association of german journalist said that it qualifies as censorship adding that they had warned of this danger when the law was drafted last year a private company based in the united states decides the boundaries of freedom of the press and opinion in germany now this is even going on in the u.k. where twitter and facebook are facing sanctions after m.p.'s that said that they failed to thoroughly investigate how russia supposedly swayed the brig's that vote but the has to be them there's so much good news i'm saying if you fail to do that and if you ignore a request to arms if you fail to police the science effectively and deal with highly problematic content then one has to be some sort of sanction against you. so

the only trace of russia the companies were able to find were three ads worth less than a dollar however the idea that maybe russia didn't influence the election is apparently off the table so who exactly polices the internet is it government or is it the social media companies or is it the government through social media companies that's all very unclear at the moment. yeah exactly good question. karl reporting live from d.c. you want to go to international coming up the french president plans to crack down on fake news but targeting foreign media.

this periodic album number seventy nine is unique attributes that make it great for money basically because without more in the back you mean has got forty years of history to it and it's evolved through all these technologies it's a unique protocol and it like gold is attracting a huge amount of capital for for the for this achievement and you can't say that you can simply go out there and create another one there are competitors of course just like there are competing species on planet earth for energy and survival but there's only one the apex predator or that is at the moment before he dies from all the dark. so the french president is going to fake news of the lord regular media influenced

by foreign states money mccrone emerge the move to journalists in paris on wednesday. it was finished between fake news machines and the professional media we run the risk of losing the truth the barriers have been destroyed presidential campaigns and almost all modern democracies have displayed their weakness and our collective failure to come up with a response. in a speech he wasn't specific about which countries he thinks could be influencing french media but he and the sputnik news agency of drawn across our in the past our correspondents were denied access to his presidential campaign last year and he later labeled us propaganda outlets but only to be brought into. this it is russia today and sputnik have been influential outlets which have several times spoken mistruths about me and my campaign that's why they have not

been invited in my headquarters while the r.t. family the christmas present for the french speaking world we can tell you the launch of our brand new channel r.t. france is just on air literally that immediately ruffled a few high profile feathers several french public figures published an open letter calling for r.t. france's license to be revoked they said artie's repeatedly faced numerous allegations from the u.s. and several european countries political commentator adrian gallant believes mccrone should be careful about taking legal measures against any media. i think what he is now trying to do is to change the french civil code in order to prevent what he sees as a i threaten democratic life of the nation he clearly sees r.t. and sputnik as part of that but i think that he also wants to change the merit of the conversation to make this more about the use the pedal what he calls false news fake news i think you need to tread very carefully i think it's a very thin line between exercising new laws that protect. people's rights and not

have their their views challenged by untruths and actually clamping down on freedom of expression so he could find himself acting unconstitutionally if you're not careful. himself has become infamous for his difficult relations with the media has repeatedly accused him of big narcissistic and often refused to speak with journalists giving comments is not the role of the president. only because if i could not that i'd like to study up on the courses for something for something i think it's just simply i don't have all forces here for civil under such only that. i consider for my part that it is not one of the certain debates take place in a public forum. the reality is international media television news internet is now a fact of life and if you wish to be a statesman on the world scene you need to engage with media rather than running away from it he in my view did himself no favors and i do think that he's very clearly now trying to do a bit of a youth and trying to sort of embrace those who support him whilst perhaps shunning

those that don't so you haven't done himself any favors. for ten people were killed and two were injured in a fire near the siberian city of novosibirsk on thursday it broke out at around nine in the morning local time flames quickly engulfed the premises filling the two thousand square meter building with toxic smoke verges services say the victims were workers at the factory or the dead or thoughts of the foreign nationals it's believed an electrical fault is what caused the fire to start. donald trump's lawyers are threatening legal action against former white house strategist steve ballard big news today they say ballard has broken a nondisclosure agreement but making a number of incendiary claims and comments for a new book about the president trumps already struck back at his former right hand man who claims among other things trump wasn't ready for the presidency the president says but i was never part of the inner circle only work to further his own interest and quote lost his mind after being fired the white house press

secretary also weighed in on the issue. it was curious why these reports first came out voters so. i think furious discussed it would probably certainly fit when you make such outrageous claims and completely false claims against the president his administration and his family the book at the center of the spot it's called far and inside the truck white balance quoted as saying that a meeting between members of trump's camp and the russian loya jirgah his election campaign was treasonous and unpatriotic he also allegedly hits out of the president's daughter ivanka trump to steve byrne and left a void in oldest a year after joining trump's election team he was a pivotal figure for the president during his campaign and was seen as the ideological driving force in the administration despite the state his comments of course legal or media are on this line doesn't think will cause too much of a headache though here's

a simple rule if you don't go after trump he doesn't bother you go after him in any way insult him criticize him take him to task and he's on you with a death grip you've never seen does anybody think that anybody in the drug administration cares one i owe to about this i mean it's what it does is it throws the mainstream media the washington press corps and the mainstream media news troops and throws them into disarray which truong thrives on and after he's done with bannon he's going to say something about france or italy or or some of his neighbor has someone this is his pattern does anybody not pay attention trump for arrives on this he loves this. with his first anniversary in office approaching the u.s.

president's been talking up his economic record in typical style meantime economic miracle created more than two million jobs unemployment is at a seventeen year the stock market is at an all time high fantastic for the economy our economy has already surged to three percent growth unemployment is at a seventeen year old liberated the american economy and our economy is doing well but while money doesn't president trump's optimism is former u.s. congressman ron paul he's spoken to us he told us that the growth in the u.s. is principally benefit to those already at the top if you're in the stock market a wealthy person here doing quite well but what we're forgetting here when we listen to this rhetoric of all this optimism is that there's a large segment of our population as have been a difficult time where there is prosperity and more jobs it depends on death yes an individual can feel very good if they have

a line of credit to the bank but eventually that line of credit runs out we in this country benefit because we have the reserve currency of the world we can run up a lot of debt and we can spend a lot of money and even with that we've had a great deal of difficulty is last eight years trying to get out of the recession now i see everything we do is a big bubble and all those kiwis that we have dealt with in these last eight years have just created a huge bubble and everything is in excess whether it's our military budget our overseas gauge friends whether it's the welfare state and that bubble will come to an end we're going to have a sudden cataclysmic and which is sort of what happened to the soviet system it's not going to be identical and our states aren't probably going to break up but i do sincerely believe that we will no longer be able to afford our empire around the world rumpole talking to us direct thanks watching out to international that's the way the news shaping up so. check out our check out our website for the latest from

is twenty four seventh's for those kevin always saying thanks for watching and stay with us if you can this much more. i had a great education a good job and a family that loved me. i never had to worry about how i would eat some where i would sleep. i'm facing christmas alone out on the streets of london. oh you look to be. a cut above the door you like going to school you know to slip in the still give up food for the hope of. you don't really feel like a human being in that. and then. the guy just came over to me saw me and gave me a change of this book. sky

. it's the cradle of jazz. the america is the america we are. the oldest jazz feeling. a city of climatic contest trophies of alligators on the loose of poverty and crime are used by the least swell members the mob family close most. of street racing in the heat of the night this is new orleans. the

best place in the world. hello there friend. this is the guys report this show that expose your life. and you pocket. sometimes you just obviously this is the ninth birthday week of bitcoin so i'm going to stick on this but i know also a lot of people have not only. from the new year still but they have indigestion from the you know baptism by market crashes and volatility you know most people got into big coin twenty seventeen and they only saw up up up up parabolic and it was like it was like pennies from heaven it was like wonderful and

then a lot of volatility hit over christmas so i'm assuming there's a lot of indigestion and fear and panic and self loathing and all sorts of stuff happening so we're going to look at this article that jamison lup as we mentioned when we were hanging out with him for the big queen birthday party last night and i want to talk about take a step back to understand where big queen came from and by understanding the genesis of the genesis bloc that happened on january third two thousand and nine understand where the future might be what might happen in nine years from now and the rise of the cipher punks this is an important term to understand in the cypherpunks because right now most of the tension for all the newbies involved in cryptocurrency is all about the corporate side everything and c. and b. c. bloomberg what they're focusing on and took for us to watch c n b c and bloomberg

is quite interesting because it's it's not at all what most people although like the original gangsters of bitcoin nobody really talks about these aren't what are important to the big point community but it's a corporate side and that's their side of the story but we're looking at the origin what happened from bitcoin to block chain to distributed ledgers the cryptocurrency space is fast evolving to the point where it can be difficult to see which direction headed but we're not without clues on many of the innovations in the space are new they are. built on decades of work that led to this point by tracing this history we can understand the motivations behind the movement that spawned it coin and share its dition for the future so he starts with the history which was in the seventy's and at that time cryptography was invented and created and developed by the u.s. military by the likes of the n.s.a. and cia mostly n.s.a. so they developed cryptography and it was at that time that all of the guys with

the knowledge of that this was considered basically state secret is like you know you can't just sell somebody u.s. military technology this was considered military technology to tell them about cryptography to tell them about encryption so in the seventy's was crypto war one was crypto war one the cryptographers against the government they wanted to open source and share this christian technology and order to keep the internet and communication private this notion of privacy not secrecy privacy for the individual participating online the idea of privacy isn't shrine and in the constitution clearly you could interpret the the right to assemble as the right to assemble and communique privately. if that were not the case pretty for the american revolution if there were no private meetings to think about the american revolutionary war

without george washington's ability to send a message privately out there in the the colonies to to organize the the war against the empire yeah well he obviously needed secrecy these were secrets he was keeping from the crown and there is a legitimate reason for secrecy and all these early cryptographers did understand that you wanted secrets kept from your enemies you know it was during world war two we didn't want the nazis to have our. our knowledge we use those you know native americans so they spoke the language that they're not going to speak we were keeping information secret from them however there's privacy these curtains are open right now behind us because where everybody's going to watch us on you tube we're not trying to hide anything we're happy for anybody to walk past there and look at us but if we were walking around naked or in our underwear or you know just hanging out with our friends here we do watch. you can file simply read dutch if

you've ever been to answer them they don't seem to have curtains they don't seem to mind not having much privacy but nevertheless we're not we're american and we're in america and you know you you want to keep some things private you want your own intimate private space this is what they want to maintain for the people so then he goes into the one nine hundred eighty s. he lists a few of the key people remember this the title of this article is on the rise of the cypherpunks it's really we can't get into it here we don't have enough time but you should go read it and find out the history of it but it was in one thousand nine hundred two where the term cypherpunks was first coined san francisco of course everything happens there in one thousand nine hundred two eric hughes timothy c. may and john gilmore founded a small group that met monthly a gilmore's company cygnus solutions in the san francisco bay area the group was humorously termed cypherpunks as a derivation of cipher and cyberpunk the cypherpunks mailing list was formed at the

same time and just a few months later eric use published a cypherpunks manifesto he wrote privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age privacy is not secrecy a private matter is something one does not want the world to know but a secret matter is something one doesn't want anybody to know privacy is the power to selectively reveal oneself to the world so this was the birth of the cypherpunk movement and this these are the. people the cypherpunks who invented the technology that is that is the foundation upon which big question is felt right there we're getting into the how we got to genesis block and the idea of having private messages require electronically required adventures and technology and i believe at some point in the story the government's work in creating encryption was kind of released was it was so that out and into the while it was

released finally after a big battles between these guys in the ninety's in san francisco and the government and there were threats to arrest there were threats that they were revealing state secrets and that's important to understand that's in the documentation here that he's talking about but then the technology here just like member in the last episode we talked about the pre-cambrian explosion of all these ideas and merging here here were the ideas that went into it in in that you know biological life there were creatures with seven eyes creatures with ten eyes creatures with three eyes you know there were all sorts of attempts said various configurations but you could see that eyes were going to be a good evolutionary design it was it was useful and eventually to eyes was the one that was settled on that was the standard upon which many biological creatures emerged. that is what those guys those cypherpunks were laying out the

basically the standards upon which bit queen was built and one of the things of how to keep your messages private how to secure it was it to set incentivize people to keep it private and he mentions that in one thousand nine hundred seven dr adam back created hashcash which was designed as an anti-spam mechanism that would essentially add a time in computational cost to sending email thus making spam. on economical he envisioned that hashcash would be easier for people to use then dr chums digit cash which was created a decade earlier so there was no need for the creation of an account hashcash even has some protection against double spending then later he mentions that dr de published a proposal for the money a practical way to enforce contractual agreements between anonymous actors he described two interesting concepts that should sound familiar first

a protocol in which every participant maintains a separate database of how much money belongs to a user secondly a variant of the first system where the accounts of who has how much money are kept by a subset of the participants who are incentivized to remain honest by putting their money on the line so obviously copies some of those in the evolved it evolved from those concepts right well you know i say often that if you look at gold as a periodic album number seventy nine it has unique attributes that make a great for money these are big point not born in a vacuum it has got forty years of history to it and it's evolved through all these technologies it's a unique protocol and it's like gold it is attracting a huge amount of capital force for the for the achievement and you can't say that you can simply go out there and create another one there are competitors of course just like there are competing species on planet earth for energy and survival but there's only one the apex predator or that is man at the moment before he dies of

all the garbage. that he goes into the two thousand as you mentioned gold and that's one of the ideas like all the ideas from our history of money from our history of privacy of being humans and evolving higher intellectual you know speaking freely amongst each other in these groups and speaking about ideas no matter how crazy or stupid they might seem and they invention emerge into powerful you know robust systems so he mentions how funny. who recently passed away. two thousand and four creative work which was called the reasonable proof of work which built on the backs hashcash and then of course in exile though in two thousand and five he did big gold which was digital collect.
