readings and sell you taste. after a controversial and highly criticized two thousand and eighteen mark zuckerberg burns of facebook are probably wishing the winkle boss twins were in charge right now because twenty nineteen has begun with a thud for the almost two billion strong active users strong social media site this week not only saw facebook's three day ban on articles from the online alternative news site zero ads fall apart under scrutiny which later a facebook spokesperson told breitbart was nothing more than quote a mistake with our automation to detect spam as soon as we had done it by the issue we worked quickly to fix it but then on wednesday facebook and its monopoly of social media sites which includes instagram messenger and whatsapp found themselves victims of an epic outage that affected millions of users around the world and back

and if that wasn't enough the cherry on top came late wednesday when the new york times dropped the bomb that federal prosecutors are conducting a criminal investigation into david deals space book struck with some of the world's largest technology companies well now while not much is known about what exactly the investigation is focusing on one can certainly imagine that it just might have something to do with the whole profiting off of letting other companies see a user's friends contact information and other data without consent and so with facebook now looking almost almost as awkward as bait o'rourke's i was born to run vanity fair poto is it time to finally end these social media monarchy of the book of base two thousand and twenty presidential candidate list but warns certainly think so let's find out as we start watching the hawks. one

forty. three it looks like the real thing is when. the lies you get to the bottom if you. want to play like you know i got. was that we. would. welcome everyone to watching our so i am tired and on top of the list for itself it was a heck of an interesting little dialogue and week the first because how. well is this never in that any other way but as. i am. yeah you know it's like it's like the big words this is like kind of what it is you're right it's like every rig it's like i have what it pays we're doing know what is going on with this company because of the over and over and over again i mean this week facebook's you know basically they're being looked into or at least

what many are speculating are being looked into is that there that their data sharing deals essentially violated users' privacy and that the activity. may rise to the standard of criminality that sharing and profiting off of user's information if i mean it's possible that the deals that they've made violated the terms of a two thousand and eleven consent decree the company made with the federal trade commission and just to give people an idea of like you know how you know of these companies that they would share data with would would make money or profit or what kind of access to sharing deals and power let's microsoft's bing search engine to map out the friends of virtually all facebook users without their explicit consent and amazon was allowed to obtain users' names and contact information through their friends with us and apple was able to hide from facebook users all indicators that its devices were even asking for data this is all what's been going on and so it's

kind of interesting that now facebook's you know facing the potentially facing the wrath of the justice department yeah i'm anxious to see how far that goes i mean after the cambridge analytical fiasco are burnt remember and taken out that full page ad. in the new york times another place they believe that said you know we have a responsibility to protect your information and if we can't we don't deserve it virally they do mark does think it's cool if he sells it so i mean i don't know when's entirely a surprise and they're about that i mean this is you know google don't be evil we tried they even tried to tell themselves not to do it and when you look at something like facebook and the same thing don't be yeah i think the winklevoss twins probably would have. they would have figured out better ways to somehow give us money if that means. back to them in order to like then find a way at least to make it seem like it wasn't just stealing all of this insanity with facebook and other social media sites and you know google you know all over the news is it's kind of bringing up this idea of do we need to break up big or

these monopolies to begin to to engross to the lives as we you know democratic presidential candidate was with warren back on march eighth before this you know they're extremely weak of facebook mishaps she called for the breakup of big monopolies tweeting out facebook amazon google have vast power over our economy and democracy they bulldozed competition and told to the playing field in their favor time to break up these companies so they don't have so much power over everyone else you know tom what do you think is it is it time we kind of step in and say so what can value monopoly no more i mean that would be great but the problem is even though we have a core a value system in this country for a very long time. saying that we won't have monopolies and that these are not their answers that make to the american experience there and then make to what we're you know everything we're trying that we try to do here and the rights and privileges and everything that americans are offered. yeah i don't see that happening i really

don't they're going to have to completely rethink how laws and businesses are put together because of this point you have you know one bank owns a third of the banks one insurance company has a third of the insurance company one company owns all of the media one part so to ask facebook to say ok we can't keep buying up all these little companies and doing it but this is what happens when you make money off of this buying up someone else's success and then trying to profit off it without really understanding of building anything i think we've talked about this pretty woman you know building before you know making your bag what do you do with the pretty woman from science of birth. and the time it takes me to explain this story to you at least two people. well be victims of sexual assault here in the united states and the greatest tool law enforcement has to catch and convict rapists is the rape kit or a sexual assault forensics exam kit the kid includes forensics evidence collection

tools such as a comb swabs supplies for blood samples and all the documentation needed to process the figure the physical evidence of a rape kit of a rape correctly however as any regular viewer of law and order s v u knows while the test kits how been used on a regular basis an estimated quarter million cats were not tested or logged until recently and twenty sixteen the manhattan district attorney's office committed thirty eight million dollars to help jurisdictions around the country clear the agree just national wide backlog of untested rape kits this week manhattan district attorney cyrus vance made this announcement. we tested fifty five thousand rape kits across twenty states with our investments and of those kits we tested more than eighteen thousand newly developed d.n.a. profiles were distracted from biological evidence and uploaded into the f.b.i.'s combined d.n.a. index system which is called kota now. and there will be more solutions of crimes

or they will be more prosecutions but to date that investment has already yielded one hundred eighty six you arrests sixty four convictions including forty seven sexual assault convictions and as i said that's only today. for victims this day means that law enforcement finally understands the prosecuting rape cases is not as hard as they have claimed. i mean my kid finally trusted was the catalyst for hope and change not only for myself but for my fellow survivors and for all those who are impacted by sexual assaults i was in total shock i had lost all hope in ever getting justice i was overwhelmed with relief to hear this news after sixteen years i will finally get justice from closure. so hot water as it took over a decade of documentaries letter writing campaigns kickstarter campaigns and actors

who play cops on television telling everyone and anyone that testing rape kits catches rapists let's not ever let the dark ages of justice for rape victims rise again. most definitely boy soon those soon those victims and you know. them finally realizing oh my gosh they caught that you know because the guy who did this they caught the purpose that's amazing and the fact that like you told me earlier today it was like it was a risk of heart are going to be from laura so you had a person who plays a cop on t.v. i had to push this forward i'm not joking i literally have had numerous numerous after survive law and order s v u i swear practically want to year in which she brings up the non-communication between law enforcement and the not testing of rate cuts or not having them at least put into the system and this is not an ongoing thing and like i said i really do credit i say it not with an ounce of being sarcastic i actually credit morris to heart attack mariska hargitay and the law and

order s v u people because they made it so mainstream and before that it had been this way of sure it's not a big deal you know and just to give people an idea of how bad this was in one thousand nine hundred ninety new york city had at least seventeen thousand untested great kids all of which were then tested by two thousand and three however in april of two thousand and seventeen the new york city police department stated that it had two thousand five hundred seventy eight kids on tested dated back to ninety eight forty two thousand rapes completely not even investigated really you know no one is testing and no one's looking into it no one is caught no one's being held accountable for those drugs and that's mind boggling in a horrific when you brianna and i would say you know when i said this to you earlier today i moved to new york and new york city in one thousand nine hundred nine and it's not so it's not that cuckoo for me to say that it's practically the you stepped one foot off that bus and people tell you as a woman living in new york as a single woman at twenty three years of age or any age they're like this is

a problem getting a raise you're going to get raped are going to get mugged these things are going to happen or this is how you can sort of a try to avoid these things but what i think is interesting is that people didn't. you know this beforehand because they think this untested rape or this when you go in you've been assaulted and you have this taken as every you know a sexual assault victim and it has this it can't take you assume that it's sent and you assume that it's that untested so to twenty sixteen law that made this possible in new york changed to separate but equally important issues regarding the way very large law enforcement investigates sexual assaults so these are one each police agency had to prosecutorial agency shall submit sexual offenses evidence gets in its custody or control to an appropriate forensic laboratory within ten days of receipt that means when it's tested when you're at the hospital the police the detective need to have that put into the system put into the lab and the lab must report the results. of the to the submitting agency an appropriate

prosecutorial entity within ninety days after the things so that was really important and i think what's important to understand about this case and why this is so important and why this is such a big deal is because rapists don't usually just rape once ok so a twenty sixty report from case western reserve university had said that seventy four percent of all serial rapists had at least one prior felony arrest and ninety five percent of them had at least one subsequent felony arrest among one time sexual affair assault offenders the figures were fifty one percent seventy eight so it's among serial sex offenders twenty six percent had a prior arrest for sexual assault sixty percent had a subsequent arrest for sexual assault after and what they found is you have people it's six times they were dead it seven times and if these things had simply been tested and put in the system we wouldn't be here so i want to say like this is it it's simple police work that's just what i was but exactly what i was just thinking

when you said that it's like wow if they had a test of these things these people would have been called many more we were already in the system many children one may have once have been assaulted in day of just done just done that one thing it's a simple thing it's amazing how you can catch rapist we're right because there's a girl that crazy as we go to break cork watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered at facebook you tube and twitter your poll shows that are to you dot com coming up we dig deeper into the reasons really give us war crimes whistleblower chelsea manning over this secrecy the grand jury system with journalists covering the story stay tuned.

breaks it. is nonsense ideological. is a real neighbor who will have to leave the old ways of being in nato or wherever. it's a no reach for us to go to russia to fulfill russians and to understand the. cost . for you. to come up for a fair amount still think i want to. justify. something awful because a couple of i don't. think he got time he. focused through the

case on you know what you know full well for you if they think you know how to. fish and you want to kill them for fun you get on faith nothing. i don't know how that in a way out of fear from. full force of the night would be so. aerospace scientists and former president of india a.p.j. abdul once observed. that quote let us sacrifice our today so that our children can

have a better tomorrow on friday march eighth the war crimes whistleblower and former us army intelligence officer chelsea manning once again sacrifice your freedom today for the protection of our rights tomorrow manning was arrested last friday for refusing to testify before a secret grand jury that many believe is currently conducting a criminal inquiry into julian assange and wiki leaks in a statement released after her arrest manning stated quote i will not participate in a secret process that i morally object to particularly one that has been historically used to entrap and persecute activists for protected political speech with manning now jailed for a second time by the united states government and many are wondering what the future holds for her and how many lives and constitutional rights will be destroyed in the u.s. government's quest to jail julian assad joining us today to discuss the latest imprisonment of chelsea manning is a journalist who's been following manning story since she first made headlines the managing editor of shadow press kevin gusto thank you so much for joining us kevan

. thank you for having me and i think number one i think the biggest thing everybody is kind of wondering about this is how long could joe see manning be held for by the u.s. government this time around what do we know how long this poor woman is going to be in jail. to be honest it's indefinite at the moment because she's in prison until this grand jury is no longer impaneled and it's up to eighteen months is what we've heard that you can be in jail when you are held in contempt but if the grand jury's renewed and it continues and this investigation is ongoing for more for additional months and she's in jail so long as this contempt charges hanging over her head. so many have stated that she sacrificed her freedom as i said in order to protest the u.s. grand jury. system which is incredibly unsettling kevin what is it about this

system for the viewers at home that demand such a sacrifice from a hero like manning. yeah it's important for people to understand that the grand jury system in the united states is very repressive and it has been used to target social movements to go after activists the abuses of the grand jury system reach back we could go as early as the days of slavery when abolitionists were fighting and and so she is actually part of a tradition of activists at least in the united states very very conscious and open efforts to resist the grand juries go back to the nine hundred seventy s. with activists who were very cognizant of how cointelpro had targeted their efforts to fight the war or to organize for independence there were independence movements

like the puerto rican independence movement and of course in the case of this grand jury what their stand what she is standing for is the right to not have her constitutional rights assaulted the right to not have to go before a jury and incriminate herself because she has spoken about everything that this jury grand jury could possibly be interested in and then she's standing up whether she says it explicitly or not she's standing up for press freedom. and in fact we've had grand juries before the pentagon the pentagon papers case there were grand juries too that were impaneled in boston and they subpoenaed journalists they were attacking those people out there who were involved they were attacking people who distributed the pentagon papers and trying to shut that effort down this was something that president richard nixon was wanted to be carried out. you know one

of the other aspects of this too was. one of the big changes that manning's facing physically from this room of jay leno i mean i understand her lawyer had requested that she be not jailed in the jail without actually just being you know kind of given a version of white house arrest or you know being confined to her home instead due to potential health risks we know what those health risks are and what manning space and physically with those. we just need to be aware that she's a chair she's a transgender woman and there is very limited health care for anyone who is incarcerated straight or gay lesbian bisexual what have you but in her case it's exceptionally problematic that she would be incarcerated and i wouldn't i don't think i'm exaggerating here if i say that there are ways whether it's intentional or unintentional that the prosecutors can coerce her into testifying before the grand jury you know one way would be to make it very

difficult on her to obtain access to health care and she's had problems there was a suicide attempt when she was at fort leavenworth when she was in a military facility there was problems obtaining access to mental health treatment she's someone who has gone through health care to help her transition into becoming a woman and so you know it's. she's had a lot of treatment to deal with her gender identity disorder and she's had psychological issues and it's possible that while she's in this detention center in alexandria virginia that that could be denied to her and also just going back to prison anyone who's bet in prison is traumatized going back to try to prison retrial my ties as you write and i think one of the things we do yeah that is and that a big thing that we have to understand is you know one her transition and on a a matter. scale that she is in this process the health effects that can that can come

from suddenly being off of your hormones are not having the right mormons. and jail hospitals and doctors are not great about that and the other thing is the p.t.s.d. this is someone who literally p.t.s.d. from what she saw what she what she whistle blew and then how she was treated afterward this obviously this grand jury is to specifically investigating julian assange and wiki leaks do we know what the u.s. government was hoping to get manning to testify to that wasn't already public record from the original trial. well i think that the educated guess here is that they are looking at the time when she had communications with people who were allegedly associated with wiki leaks there are records from when she made those disclosures that were they were entered into evidence during the military court martial during her trial back in two thousand and thirteen and so she made

a public statement she when she pled guilty to some of the offenses she talked about what had happened and they're trying to get her to say more of course she doesn't want to contradict her statements she doesn't want to do something that opens her up to some jeopardy and so she's saying i don't want to have anything to do with this is could be very detrimental to my well being and this is a listen is also something that i don't think of her as well being worried about oh i lied before and i'm worried about telling the truth now she knows the grand jury system you know you have no defense attorneys there for you to help you to protect you from a prosecutor that's looking to twist your words around or twist your statements to me in person that it's going to get late too because you know no matter how secret that says there's going to be only two that are detrimental to to her you know her entire life you know i want to finish up here i want to ask you know what what does the future look like mel you know for manning this kind of investigation into wiki

leaks what should we expect what could we expect moving forward. or what we know it's going to be highly secretive and there could be decades before we truly know what these prosecutors owner donald trump are up to but we know that they're targeting the newsgathering process they're trying to circumvent the issues that the obama justice department had which decide which made them decide to back off and so right now they're putting on a legal defense they're raising a lot of money her lawyers to try to fight this and hopefully get her free and. really i think we can all agree that we want to see that happen because i'm enough of it but it is kind of put themselves on the line over the years for what they believe in chelsea is the person you know is is there anything the what's the best you know and what you read and what you need to research and how you followed her story is there anything that people should be doing to support her but she was just want to support her what's the best way well if they're so inclined to support

her there is a chelsea resists campaign that's out there and i know they set a goal for like one hundred fifty thousand dollars they plan to fight appeals you know she tried to quash the subpoena but it was rejected by a federal judge i presume that they're going to appeal that decision and then they claim her lawyers that their other way is that they can challenge being held in contempt if there was any improprieties or abuses of authority by these prosecutors it's it's very possible that that could end up helping her get free from this county jail. i got to say thank you so much for joining us today kevin people to great work out there on the case and thank you for the hard work that you've been doing. thank you. ok time for a quick geometry lesson the sure conference over circles the distance around at the diameter is the distance of a straight line passing through the center of a circle the magic happens when you try to calculate the ratio of those two numbers

no matter what you do the circumference will always be just about three times as long as the diameter and we call this power no not the kind you eat but the kind that makes art an engineering vase of all this week we get to celebrate the celebration of the single most useful mathematics and by giving a nod to emma. who use who use the google cloud and compute engine services to calculate further than ever before get this it was thirty one trillion four hundred fifteen billion nine hundred twenty six million five hundred thirty five thousand eight hundred ninety seven digits to be exact it took twenty five virtual machines one hundred twenty hours to calculate the number. and a whopping one hundred seventy terabytes of data and a complete that's as much data as is in the entire library of congress so here's to od on the math that seems like magic one number.

jobs not exaggerating pi is truly like this magical universal number that you see in nature you forget it's orderly and goes along with the golden ratio that everything is about three little more as each if you look at shells if you look at all of that it's things that you'll see in nature that have that same look at a way when waves ripple out. man so apply. and far they are. that is our zero through to everyone remember in this world we are not told but we love to tell you all i love i am tired world and on top of the well this keep on watching all those hawks out there and i will be great day and night that we want to enjoy your pie. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going
