share their relationship status for friends to share pictures announce parties keep in touch but somewhere along the line facebook group dark gathering and selling people's personal information bots fake news election meddling censorship and suspensions targeting innocent people at times and the videos streams mass murders the new zealand shooting rapes snuff videos it seemed facebook c.e.o. did nothing but apologize now it was a big mistake now was a mistake and it was my mistake and i'm really sorry that this happened and i'm sorry and i'm sorry for it it seems zuckerberg is tired of keeping facebook his own platform clean he now wants governments to do it ministries to police
4:03 am
the net with rules and regulations. the saying goes the route to hell is paved with good intentions though something tells me. less interested in good intentions and more concerned about bad press and profit but hey who knows he talks so pretty by updating the rules for the internet we can preserve what's best about it the freedom for people to express themselves. remarkable he's actually saying that government censorship politicians deciding what you can and cannot do or say will somehow make the internet freer when has that ever happened before in fact one of the scandals facebook was embroiled in was its wholesale cleansing

of pages and news feeds it didn't like in full was alex jones even for a while artie's math ik media all for vatican pages including the now were taken down for no reason other than pressure from pro-war think tanks and i'll leave the report from fianna the messages are slick filled with graphics with grand. young left leaning americans getting news from social media and the videos have been viewed tens of millions of times billions of times thank you apparently it's all for you your freedom your safety so here it is a corporate billionaire with dirty hands asking politicians to censor and regulate the web you don't get five hundred million friends without making a few enemies he once said but it seems heading towards having just
4:05 am
a few friends and millions of enemies and why this call now investigative journalist lyndall believes mark zuckerberg is simply looking after his own interests. wolves are getting closer of regulation of his company there's a lot of anger and it's a growing call to break up facebook to regulate facebook and i think what's everybody's doing is recognizing that something is going to happen and rather than face it alone he wants to. call for regulation of all his competitors to because if he's the only one who's regulated he gets broken up the company gets smaller has less power. and to gets hurt in the competition with larger entities like google he's trying to shape it but i don't think his argument holds a lot of water that is that he's been making all along that somehow facebook is

just a free speech issue a check of the big vote in ukraine next with more than half the votes counted comedian followed him its lead ski's leading the polls in the first round of the presidential election there so far he's won thirty percent of the vote i will be up there for against incumbent president petro poroshenko later this month in the second round. he said he was of a good says he well you have as well of course any protect because of this you do
4:07 am
following this this guy remarkable trajectory he's come from comedian to kind of man of the people if you like he's captured a lot of the younger vote to now getting double of votes of the incumbent president has the so happened while kevin first of all this is ukraine where anything can happen during the elections disses a country that went through two revolutions in the course of just ten years and the nation right now it is fair to say is sick and tired of the familiar faces from the old political elite and. the comedian who has already dug himself zat president well he's never took part in any kind of elections indeed but his long been a politician in a sense that pretty much a great deal of his humor was always about the active politicians and for years and years he destroyed his political opponents in his shows you can actually make
4:08 am
a video ballot if you look at all the episodes of his shows have a lot. and we did you know kind of. yeah i think. he had a. but it's. a . well there was also something important a few years ago mr zelinsky began staring in his own sitcom where he played the part of just an ordinary teacher of history at school who all of a sudden became president it's surrealism what went wrong for petro poroshenko the . was this expected or well first of all we still have to be fair
4:09 am
experts are saying that his chances are decreasing of especially after the results that we're getting right now as the votes are being counted but it is very important to remember how petro poroshenko got into power that happened as a result of the revolution five years ago when people were desperate for a new ukraine the nation one to a country without poverty without corruption probably a country that's part of nato or the european union and again the most vital thing a country without civil war and failed ukrainians can now go to the european union without visas he managed to give independence to the cranium orthodox church from moscow but he kept on going on with this anti russian rhetoric promises to bring crimea back let's take a listen to some of that. we will bring back crimea we were
4:10 am
three men and women who found themselves in the illegal territory we will bring ukrainian marines to we do not get them for sex. but it really seems given the results that we're getting the numbers that we're getting that people weren't really buying it he still has three weeks though to change the course of that so people want to win to change this wish of the younger people. she was the she was in the top three of this what forty people about my own bitterly disappointed vote for her well first of all for a long time she was the symbol of ukrainian opposition if you remember she even spent a few years in jail under president you know in cold which so she was definitely expected to challenge president poroshenko for years while he was incumbent president and then three months ago selenski came out and said i'm running and i
4:11 am
guess most of the votes weren't taken from yulia timoshenko but she still wants to be in that second round because with mr poroshenko as approval ratings just a few months ago being as low as nine percent experts and you did see much like herself were saying that the only way you could make it into the runoff was by rigging the vote she's confident that the vote was being rigged and let's just see what happens if she's able to take her supporters to the street if she's able to start a new my don. we don't know what's going to happen because again this is ukraine this is a place where politics are. perhaps to watch this space well we'll know more will officially in about ten days or so but as you say to be pointing towards that goal becoming impressive it is now. thinking. international

show the fertility clinics has been slammed for helping on drugs of a straight couples choose the gender of the children the procedure is bad to destroy itself so it was carried out in the united states instead. outrage over the latest move toward designer babies the world's first genetically engineered baby else you get down the slippery slope of does genetically altered designer babies includes designer babies so with the procedural eugenics it is called when it's going to a child's d.n.a. that allows them to change physical features such as i color maybe even q a certain illnesses a ban on editing human embryos is established in twenty nine countries around the globe such as the controversy over it in the u.s. two it's the same but instructive rules don't apply to gender selection is not prohibited scientists brian how he explains concerns surrounding genetic engineering the risks are so high right now no that it's you know that's that's why the large american jew nearing has been banned for

humans because in animals you get you get situations where you get say thirty going to bring those that are considered good enough to implant in and out of those you get two or three that can survive for a few weeks and one that is considered viable or just on the on the air of. being ready to do that in a way that is reliable enough. for human use he rights lawyer jennifer braden and money had last or a politician and activists exchanged their views on the issue. we're not talking about getting a vehicle or buying a car and be able to design your car we're talking about a human life a child a baby and what this opens up to the danger that this opens it up to where society now things that they can basically just pick and choose i mean it even said that
4:14 am
the science was going towards a way not just of eye color and of gender but also of skin color of race and so while we could be afraid that there might be another area in society out there actually i have a lot of mixed feelings about this issue because you know on one hand a lot of this genetic testing has been used for women who can't have children i guess they do the genetic modification. and then in that case she's able to have a baby the other hand is what does open it up to and hand spins for you have this concept of designer babies not only does that create a dangerous precedent for motherhood as an example or for parenthood as an example but it's now glorified glorifying and placing his glorification so to speak on and on the baby's appearance at birth what more is that going to create say a parent paid for something in the eye color wasn't quite what the parents wanted and now the child going to be forever shamed or living in shaded on the converse
4:15 am
that the parent gets everything they paid for and the qualities of a child how is that child going to raise knowing that to treat others with respect and dignity based on their character and their personality because they're going to have been raised knowing you know we paid for you and we got you exactly the way we wanted you i don't want this issue of designer babies to come to fruition because i feel that would. it would essentially be what professor stephen hawkins argued that we're creating this super race which would add more inequality into the world but at the same time if this is a medically necessary procedure for a mom to have her child what's wrong with that i just think the president this creates is very troubling specifically in the science community and in parenthood and in the family system as a whole. that was six in the morning moscow time head of the program off the break couple of stories to warn you about this damning video evidence in the u.s. police shooting of a black rapper you might want to catch up with

4:18 am
instant took place of february police were called to check on mccoy's wellbeing six officers shot him twenty five times claiming a link for his gun when he woke up in his car the video evidence suggests police did not try to wake him up something that his family also claimed the big picture police in the united states killed more than a thousand people in twenty eighteen most of the officers involved did not go on to face criminal charges african-americans and latinos are statistically more likely to be shot by the police than other groups michel cross from the communities against police brutality says the offices in the willie mccoy case should be charged with murder. it is in no way a best practice of police they should not have shot him and you know it was ridiculous they shot him twenty five times and then they roughly twenty five times nobody knows for sure and then they started screaming clip your hands put up your hands the man was dead and the fact that they chose to wake him up with bullets and
4:19 am
of course kill him is completely wrong there can be no other explanation that race you know i understand that they were maybe a little spooked by the fact that he had a loaded gun in his law it didn't have a clip in it but the bottom line is that you know they should have attempted to wake you first in the united states you know an extremely far small fraction or even of officers are even charged and then only less than a four of them are they did what they are charged we are of the may ending that please be prosecuted with the troggs or her create for the incident and i believe these police officers should be in charge of her as well. since the united states can't wait for the u.k. to exit the european union national security adviser john bolton promises that britain will be top of the queue for trade when the divorce deal is done. people who worry about the u.k.
