this i was told headline to run on stage a palestinian teenager. killed by israeli soldiers at the gaza border with eighty other protesters injured a journalist working with he was caught up in the unrest. we just clicked for me it's a gaping. the no one. there a call from the u.s. to stop law enforcement using amazon's facial recognition tool wrongly matched photos of members of congress with criminal mugshots. tech giants like tesla and spotify suffering huge losses in profits for the program we look at how this is threatening the livelihoods of thousands of their employees.

just after ten am on saturday here in moscow this is all t. international a very warm welcome to. israeli soldiers at the gaza border have killed three palestinians including a teenager and injured eighty that's according to gaza's health ministry a journalist working with. was covering developments as the idea by a tear gas at protesters. i drive in that. it may be right. for. the night you want. to believe my buddy buddy but we just woke up

for many hailing insisted. i think you guys i think it's going to go to you guys one more time by all of the tear gas canisters and despite all of the life in unison the palestinian protesters continue to protest and are still very very close to the fence participating in the great much of return this is not the first time they have been facing this violence and this excessive force but they have been witnessing this for more than eighteen weeks now most of the injuries today have been injured in the upper part of the body where most of them are in the chest in the stomach and down in that and the head this is one of the injuries that was shot with live ammunition from that is right the snipers that said those palestinian minister of have stated that most of the injuries today are from live ammunition this is a protest that was killed to a name is just then people are saying that he's shot and killed it's very dangerous

for us to be here but despite everything we're still here covering all of the israeli violence against the palestinians more live ammunition we can hear live ammunition and more injuries are coming from the front line right the israeli military said they do respond in in accordance with the rules of engagement they view their actions as a defense of the border accusing hamas which runs the gaza strip using protests as a cover to breach the border but the protests on the gaza border have been continuous for almost four months now people are demanding a return of territories they claim historically belong to palestine.

the firm that put together the infamous russia dossier has been summoned to a court hearing a judge in the us ordered fusion g.p.s. to give sworn testimony in a lawsuit brought by a russian guru. he has filed a defamation suit against the dossiers author long with a media company buzz feed that released it. claims he's been falsely accused in the dossier of being a russian intelligence officer over the whole of russia dossier also known as the steel dossier is a private intelligence report by former m i six officer christopher steele it contains allegations of collusion between donald trump's presidential campaign and the russian government the dossier was published in full by buzz feed last january samir khan has more. but fusion g.p.s.

will now have to answer questions regarding its role in compiling the steel dossier be very dossier that made headlines a world wide for its unverified salacious allegations about donald trump before his inauguration now lawyers will be able to ask a fusion g.p.s. representatives about its clients how they verify their claims and why they hired christopher steele and they also have the opportunity to find out the nature of the firm's interactions with government officials and media outlets now the russian entrepreneur is a lawyer who filed these claims against bosnian still called it a victory this ruling gave us everything that we had hoped for after a year of trying everything they could think of to avoid being deposed fusion is finally going to have to sit down and answer our questions fusion g.p.s. hasn't revealed any information regarding the dossier claiming that it would violate confidentiality clauses in free speech rights but for some background the firm was hired in april two thousand and sixteen by the clinton campaign and the

d.n.c. to investigate trump's allegedly to russia for a fee of about one point eight million dollars then fusion hired a former m i six operative christopher steele and then buzz feed to publish the dossier even though it wasn't verified now fusion g.p.s. will have until august thirty first to sit in for the deposition but it's possible that the revelations that will come out of that hearing will be more scandalous than the dossier itself. operations like tesla and spotify are suffering huge losses and profits ultimately threatening the livelihoods of thousands of their employees i don't know bushel reports. wall street soaring around all time peak and driving that growth locomotive these guys who corporations like tesla spotify and dropbox are invested darlings committing even the general public who use their everyday products to buy in her role.

as the leader in stream music i say some sometimes the most successful american tech companies. one tiny problem these firms are losing a riff money tesla is worth more than car colossus is ford or general motors despite selling a skyline fraction of the cause and losing billions music streaming giant spotify is just an out vast losses now the biggest startup in the world but it's lost money every year of its life and last year the worst and i was four and the whole of billion the hope is one fine day will book. in to cause while uploading spotify music to the dropbox cloud or something like that but new economy

new danger these aren't small companies anymore they affect millions of workers and users and cracks beginning to show suggesting far from expanding some are starting to fire their workforce and in the new economy relationships are shall we say complicated hundreds of thousands of paid for tesla cause the poor company hasn't even built if it goes bust these ordinary people would likely be quote wiped out definitely there's a there's a bubble not just and tech stocks but in the general stock market itself and you know as we're already seeing companies like general electric you can be a pillar and so. some of the others a. wells fargo in financial stress that there are signs of financial fragility as i call it where francia fragility is really a condition where the cash flow to finance previous dead becomes insufficient and

they can't roll over the debt and they can borrow that debt so then they have to default or sell off some of their assets first they're better assets and then they did they default if half the can't sell off those assets well that financial fragility in my books systemically gielen the global economy is an indicator of pending financial instability and i think we're approaching that and we may see that emerge in the next year or two. the news here has released a suspected islamist terrorist who was to porter there from germany two weeks ago authorities claim there's not enough evidence against the man although i did an investigation is ongoing sami i duty is an alleged al qaeda member and was accused by the german interior minister of being one of osama bin laden's bodyguards he had been living in germany since one thousand nine hundred seven and he even applied for asylum there in two thousand and six although the bit was unsuccessful he was

arrested and subsequently deported from the country earlier this month but in twenty ten the administrative court of docile dog prevented the deportation of sammy i do the it was concern that he could be exposed to torture and inhumane treatment into next year at the same time a number of german politicians said the court is wrong. what free to wait sammy in tunisia is not a problem of german taxpayers to protect and financially equipped and islamised well less and less true means for our own people is not acceptable but it suits chancellor angela merkel's vision for germany is allegedly a hate preacher he has al qaeda training and is said to have been the bodyguard have been lauded and anyone who thinks that we've done something terrible to sami a has to weigh up how long this man has already been in the country and how long we have tolerated this security risk rona's that he. should have been

left in germany for ten years and secondly that the way he was brought back to tunisia where he was deported there is scattered it caused to question the rule of law in germany no one wants this man enjoyed by us it is grossly illegal what happened there cannot be described as legal it anyway the court rules and how do you move government is bound by court ruling they can't just disregard of course yes this man was supported. by the town. and when it actually are the way the government responded it in a very matter well you know it's the fresh start it's all chaos now. the french president emmanuel macron has sent twitter into a frenzy after a challenge critics to quote come and get him he was referring to an incident with a security official alexander banal or who struck a protester while wearing

a police uniform. so you. can't just sit with. your. background admits to being responsible it was fair to come and get in the case let's get macro. we arrive together and united more determined than ever. mike rawlings a security guard forcibly wrestled a man to the ground during a may day rally the president suspended his aide but many felt hadn't gone far enough when the video of alex on the bed. and

a police investigation was launched on friday a number of demonstrators took to the streets in response to my friend's latest statement. that is one that the president of the republic said that he is responsible to say it is one thing but in terms of the constitution he's held to answer before the people certain organizations called for us to gather here against macros behavior he also challenged us to come and get. here it's not that we denounce we denounce violence and repression exerted by the state and the president . every single demonstration across france sees police violence being the law was mccrone say it's the same thing is the president of the reach of governance in favor of the reach are still to come here on the program on r t m a songs facial recognition tool in the spotlight after falsely matching photos of members of congress with criminal mug shots those details in just a moment. far

away. down there. he does the dollar vigilante. and that is. that there is no centralized authority that is corrupt and that leads to all kinds of bad outcomes when you have anarchy centralization of power you know you have the wherewithal to have

a more peaceful existence. you saw today headlines we're not seeing the u.k. has suspended its cooperation with the united states over the prosecution of two form of british citizens who joined islamic state known as the i sold beatles accent but the pair were caught in syria and could now face the death penalty in america and britain had intended to share intelligence to help the prosecution however london decided to take a short pause after outrage in britain over the possible executions of the u.k. dropped the death penalty and nine hundred sixty nine lawmakers rights groups and a family member of one of the suspects all appealed to the british government.

takes a closer look. political rallies human rights taking a stand in case you missed it quite frankly a bit of a pay when you want some terrorists taken care of. the isis b. cells not called back because most of them a dad in one is a terrible drama but because they carried out it seems to accept terroristic gruesomeness well speaking with a british accent grammar came up with that title has unfortunately made them sound a little too costly for a gang of murderous to head it is ten of them have been captured by the us which really wants to extradite them home and deliver some humane justice if you know what i mean all of america needs is a bit of evidence to be sent out of it from britain which is a real shame because the u.k. is a country of conviction political values and it doesn't contain the possible use of the death penalty in any situation there was outrage how could britain stoop so low

i'm sure it even the lives of their beatles at risk they had already rescinded their british possible it's my god is that not punishment enough. anyway if you care of the likes of the isis beatles while at the same time keeping your values intact well luckily there are a few options. target the bad guys with anonymous drones while they're still in a sandy country that different tone sure is always tricky but if one of your intelligence agents happens to be standing in the back of the room well someone else from one of those developing nations happens to be pulling out the fingernails well that's different and steve i'd freedom fighters with a picture of bin ladin in that wallet to do some killing that. sending terrorists to stand trial in a real court or for a possible death sentence well not just that my. facebook because blocked hundreds of rightwing activists accounts in brazil is part

of the talk all. fake news the move caused outrage in the country with many claiming facebook is clearly interfering in the upcoming presidential elections later this year at the head of the right wing free brazil movement says the tech giants decision to block the accounts took him and his colleagues by surprise these pages and profiles were part of a coordinated network concealed by the use of fake accounts on facebook which hid from people the nature and origin of the continent for the purpose of generating division and spreading misinformation or of course. was shut down and i was like what the hell is going on then suddenly i start calling wrong model friends who are also went and suddenly we also realize there are many many profiles files for the leaders for. why and then we realize

first even before the facebook he was an answer we realized that there was. a journalism paper writing that we. we were banded for facebook because we have like a network off three hundred facebook pages and profiles spreading fake news and we're like we don't spread any fake you know what what the hell they're talking about brazil's a federal prosecutor has called on facebook to explain the blocking of the profiles without due investigation into any so-called violations he's demanded a list of all pages and profiles blocked as well as a fact you will justification for each decision and here's co-founder of the free press or movement again son toss saying that the deleted pages were obviously influential enough to attract facebook's attention. it was in the last three years the most influential. page on brazilian facebook and it's always

saw one of the most influential political preachers in the world actually our numbers of engagement used to be compared to. be here and inherently and we did a lot of transformation or calgary because of our job because of our natural because we fought the mainstream media but as equally the they knew that they couldn't win the public debate against us so they decided to shut shuttle or not to make or make us quiet and that's what they're doing they start to first of all putting down our reach on facebook used to reach eight million people might even have people they meet only on our facebook page and now we reach one point five to one people and they are doing these because of what the elections and also because intern actual actions they are there and somehow they're trying to sure there are american elections that they are doing their homework using brazil as. an expert an

experiment for. u.s. lawmakers and the american civil liberties union are raising the alarm over amazon's facial recognition tool that's offered falsely matched photos of members of congress with criminal mugshots prompting calls for a moratorium on its use by law enforcement. an identification with that accurate or not could cost people their freedom or even their lives congress must take these threats seriously hit the brakes and enact a moratorium on law enforcement use of face recognition of the american civil liberties union and compared photos of all the members of the us congress with a large database of criminal mug shots amazon's facial recognition tool made twenty eight matches all of them were false now eleven of the mismatches involve people of color prompting additional concern other union claims the tool has an in built racial bias saying the false matches were disproportionately people of color

a forty percent of the mismatches involve people of color who also make up twenty percent of the people in congress we spoke to technology analyst roger cate about the issue when the software is trained to recognize faces are you have to train our corporate corpus is made up of lots of people and you for whatever reason the images are mainly cartesian people then you will be better at recognizing them learned some of the minorities of the world well represented in the training so i think that's the technical side of it. in may the a.c.l.u. revealed that amazon is trying to sell its facial recognition technology to government and police agencies and that led to more than a forty several liberties groups to join together in calling for that not to happen even amazon workers joined the protest however the technology has already been

tested in some us police departments. the next of course comedy as kate said you could expect is a public safety chemist on this are already working with government agencies to deploy this technology at the a.c.l.u. we obtain records that show that amazon signed a secrecy agreement with one county to keep details about the technology out of public view they've also invited law enforcement to suggest new features and they offered free consulting to help the city of orlando build its own system i was on has hit back of the a.c.l.u.'s test those saying that it should have employed a higher confidence threshold setting which measures the probability of an accurate match and as one recommends ninety five percent but the a.c.l.u. claims amazon used only eighty percent while eighty percent confidence is an acceptable threshold for photos of hot dogs chairs animals or other social media use cases it wouldn't be appropriate for identify an individual us with

a reasonable level of certainty when he is in facial recognition for law enforcement activities we guide customers to set a threshold of at least ninety five percent or higher from amazon's point of view what they said was that the train there are law enforcement clients not to use the software or who are making decisions but rather to narrow down who'll to where the shoeman can look at the final results and verify yes these do make sense to people who are not the same people so they're saying that human beings should still be involved even with a very high cost and slow will. that the images match i think there's another piece of. a powerful drug cartel in colombia has taken out a hit on a german shepherd dog this canine angered the big old drug barons after it snuffed out a huge stash of cocaine. thanks

for joining us on this saturday here on aussie international we're back with more hope to see you in about twenty five minutes.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race based on often spearing dramatic development only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. you know world of big partisan lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to get the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bad and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the troops the time is now for watching closely watching the

exchange rate it was about the overall status of international relations right now . in the us aid trump appointee is pushing a major change to the legal process for settling alleged labor law violations peter robb general counsel of the national labor relations board or n.l.r.b. outlined plans to affectively demote the regional directors who resolve about eighty five percent of n.l.r.b. cases by placing them in a new smaller tier of civil servants who could overrule the regional managers the changes expected to tilt the system toward ruling in favor of employers. all right let's head back now to davos.
