facebook's advertising tools recently labeled sixty five thousand russian members as having an interest in treason around gaza explains. facebook really outdid itself on this one here's how it went certain facebook users russians in this case were internally so they didn't know labeled as interested in treason so those perhaps with anti government views against russia all russians facebook only stopped when they got caught treason was included as a category given its historical significance given it is an illegal activity we have removed it as an interest category now here's the juice of it who do you think would be interested in this data clue that the thais as watchmakers now don't and

that propagandists those interested in riling these people up targeting bombarding them with anti russian propaganda masquerading as ads encouraging them to commit treason a perfect tool to meddle in russia's politics facebook remove the treason category due to criticism but there are plenty more that it's keeping thirty advertisers of course. but the gambling offers no similar protections for information about those categories that it has inferred for instance that or use them i'd be interested in homosexuality or interested in islam that information facebook isn't removing how would you feel of for example you were marked as interested in homosexuality in saudi arabia where homosexuals are executed how do you feel if you are marked as
10:03 pm
interested in islam and myanmar where muslims are exterminated and facebook may well have been marking potential traders in other countries much less respectful of human rights in which these people might disappear we've tried to contact them for the comment but no response so far and at this stage it's safe to say that fish book has been literally in being during people's lives this feels like western stirring western interference in the democratic process within russia because they're trying to create tension or suspicion or paranoia amongst the people who might have taken an interest in some historical case of treason or whatever it is and we've seen the same thing happen across the west as well over the last few years where we know that facebook also profiles for what is called dissidents or subversive in western countries and of course this can all be sold on to companies
10:04 pm
such as cambridge analytic or the big scandal in the u.k. of the last few months but it's certainly dangerous for our democracies to i've been saying for at least a tech case that facebook is effectively this sort of fantasy system that if the spies could have developed it they would have developed it and the fact that facebook has been colluding with the west inspired global surveillance plan not going as we know from the whistle blowing thread with snowden and one of his earliest disclosures was the prism program you know the meshing between the core person the states of aliens this incredibly close now across the west so all i can say to russia is welcome to the. u.s. government has said guantanamo prisoners could be held without charge indefinitely about a story much more to the company with us this is our internet. i

10:06 pm
this is our team international the u.s. department of justice has admitted that there are no plans to release guantanamo prisoners a lawyer representing the inmates expressed his alarm over those comments which were made at a federal court hearing think the government didn't help its case by saying that you know essentially you know this this war might be like one hundred years war in england and potentially we could end up detaining people for several generations as long as hostilities were ongoing and in the war on terror we'll have an men in that court case have been held at the military prison some for as long as fifteen years despite never having been charged and their lawyers are demanding that the inmates be either tried or released one of the prisoners in the appeal is tell feek behind me where he is a yemeni citizen and has been at guantanamo since two thousand and three on
10:07 pm
suspicion of having been a member of al qaeda has previously been cleared for release on three different occasions but is still at the prison here is what another detainee had to say about their situation i still have faith even after all this time they did judge will see through this stupidity the better solution would be to see the american taxpayer the eleven million poor year to keep me here and maybe nobody but i'm a very expensive nobody over the guantanamo bay detention camp was opened in two thousand and two by president george w. bush since then seven hundred eighty prisoners have been held at the facility and in january this year president trump signed an executive order to keep the camp open indefinitely here's how another former guantanamo prisoners described the torment he suffered there. torture false imprisonment cruel inhuman degrading treatment is something that myself and many others endured but i think the cruelest
10:08 pm
and most torturous treatment has being that you are detained without charge to a trial by a country that claims to be the bastion of freedom live human rights and democracy we already know people are being tortured on mass the americans are mentioned it during the state report on torture but what's happening now is that one tunnel is as an american high and i think most people recognize this whether it's bush obama or don't trump all have allowed one tunnel to exist and continue under the presidency. an f.b.i. agent who used to be in charge of the trump russia coalition probe has testified on allegations of bias the hearing which has just finished ran for more than nine hours with some emotional outbursts and your testimony years bob mohler did not kick you off because of the content of your text he kicked you all because of some appearance that he was worried about my testimony if you want to represent which he

said accurately i'm happy to answer that question but i don't appreciate what was originally said being changed i don't give a damn what you appreciate agent structure not even a week into an investigation that you originated approved or the contact for if you're already promising to protect the country from that menace donald trump i will not answer that question you have not stated a valid legal basis for not responding to a question directed to you by a member of the united states house of representatives and you are overruled point of order mr chairman your let me let me continue your testimony is essential to this hearing and i have a point of order before he answers the question the point of order is not well taken until you know at the point of order if you can say it and i will take up point of order that the witness will answer the question. now you're here and already present i declared because you don't question that ruling out of order mr chairman let's turn it right a privilege and he has been i have not to answer that i will suspend so peter

struck who you just saw is an f.b.i. agent who was one of the agents leading the investigation into alleged russian collusion now he was accused of antitrust bias after some of his private talks with a colleague lisa page were leaked in one of those texts he even vowed to stop trump from becoming president trump is not even going to become a president right right now no he won't stop it. it is testimony that was described as a circus by one congresswoman pierce truck attempted to defend himself saying that his personal views have never influenced his official f.b.i. decisions but check out what else he had to say not once in my twenty six years of defending our nation did my personal opinions impact any official action i took but the committee was pretty divided over his testimony while republicans were on the off chance democrats were playing defense objecting to all their questions now one
10:11 pm
loyal democrat even suggested that struck be rewarded for his service to the country on the other side struck desperately tried to keep the russian history alive by characterizing the proceedings as a win for the usual suspect i have the utmost respect for congress has oversight role but i strongly believe today's hearing is just another victory notch in putin's belt and another milestone in our enemy's campaign to tear america apart the trump russia investigation has somehow survived for over a year now but no evidence has been produced till date but what it has produced is a whole lot of controversy alongside masters of phobia and internal polarization and it seems to be getting worse and worse every single day so it looks like it won't be going away any time soon does it for me this hour be back about twenty six and a half minutes with thirty six five minutes with a look at your news you are watching r d international stay with us.
