still in the theater shooting the slow steps of the room. you're watching r t international bring you your live news update from our studio here and moscow welcome to the program. the u.s. department of homeland security has authorized migration officials to use fake social media accounts to monitor people seeking to enter the country but that does fly in the face of efforts to purge online networks of false profiles as dollar corner explains. fake social media accounts the latest weapon in homeland security's arsenal the department's updated guidelines have officially made cyber disguises fair game for its agents the fraud detection and national security directorate is updating this privacy impact assessment to provide notice that officers may use fictitious accounts or identities on social media platforms to

protect national security public safety or to combat immigration fraud homeland security claims these fake accounts could be used to clean up the process of legal immigration detecting fraud finding weak spots and immigrations vetting system and conducting background checks are all listed as areas that could be improved and although communicating with other users is forbidden there's still one problem with the idea fake accounts used for surveillance violate the use its terms of both facebook and twitter it is against their policies to use fake persona and to use twitter down or for persistent surveillance of individuals who look forward to understanding u.s. c.i.s. proposed practices to determine whether they are consistent with the terms of service and might be against company policy but this isn't even a 1st for u.s. law enforcement earlier this year police stations the d.n.a. and ice work s'posed all for using fake profiles isis facebook personas were even

connected to a fake university created to entrap illegal immigrants looking to study their as they were exposed to facebook moved to delete those accounts law enforcement authorities like everyone else are required to use their real names and facebook and we make this policy clear in our public facing law enforcement guidelines speech overrating fake accounts is not allowed and we swiftly act on any violating accounts. but an internet privacy watchdog says the social media giant isn't doing enough facebook's practice of taking down these individual accounts when they learn about them from the press or from a f f is insufficient to what we believe is a much larger iceberg beneath the surface we often only discover the existence of law enforcement fake profiles months if not years after an investigation has concluded facebook no they obviously they don't care about anything they only care about making more money and and blocking people who are doing good things i mean

they abuse people's private information it's built into their system and they don't want to do anything about it until someone holds them to account so thankfully the guardian pointed this out and then they they blocked it but how many things did the guardian not see and there are just literally thousands and thousands of these things that are out there ward unaided inauthentic behavior is what facebook terms fake profile activity and since the 2016 election the company has been on an all out crusade against it i think to city matters because people need to trust that the content they are seeing is valid and they need to trust the connections they make their identifying and challenging 8 to 10000000 suspicious accounts every week we're also going to require people running large pages with large audiences the united states to go through an authorization process and confirm their identity over 2000000000 accounts were deleted in the 1st quarter of 29000 alone with fingers pointed at russia 1st and then iran and china later on and all the while

congress has been spurring on the assault your companies announced a series of successful disruptions that resulted in the removal of pages groups and accounts my instinct is to applaud the diligence some of your security teams and credit you with taking the problem very seriously social media giants might find it easy to declare war on an authentic activity it thinks might be going on abroad but when they know that their own government is itself using underhanded tactics to advance its agenda who knows if the same standards will apply. we've asked facebook and twitter for their reaction to this development no comment yet. the alternative for germany or a.f.d. party is celebrating the anti immigration euro skeptics came 2nd in state elections in brandenburg and saxony significantly increasing their influence in those parliaments bitter over reports from berlin. starts off in brandenburg it was

a win for the social democrats in a campaign that they were neck in neck with a hefty throughout the alternative for germany picking up around 23 percent of the vote there with the social democrats winning on 25 percent in saxony we saw massive gains for alternative for germany it wasn't enough for them to win the state that went to the christian democratic union anger merkel's party 2728 percent for alternative for germany in saxony could end up rising as high as 30 big gains for them there and certainly big smiles from the leadership of the alternative for germany party they were saying that these results show that it's a deep just a flush upon that they are a big part of the german political stage right now and it is a sensational results we have achieved the best result in local elections ever and we can see that 30 years after the fall of the wall governments don't want to be

left wing need the. the fight is not over the fight starts now we've become much stronger no one can remove us from germany politics anymore we're staying where german politics is quite keen on a bit of self reflection a bit of navel gazing and what we've seen from other politicians who have been looking at these results from alternative for germany and they're not happy about the role they've played in allowing a.f.d. to make such big games. i am happy that we have a really good result what worries me is a result in this means we continue to face big challenges in this country. we all hope for more and wished for more and i'm also disappointed like many others are disappointed no question i as the lead candidate also share responsibility for this result alters of the journey were founded as a. anti euro euro skeptic party back in 2013 but it was following the influx

of refugees and migrants into germany in 2016 that they started to pick up a lot of points a lot of votes in the east of the country in fact in the state of saxony there is also the city of came that switch last year saw well violent scenes after a 35 year old german man was stabbed to death there a 23 year old syrian asylum applicant was sentenced to jail for manslaughter just last month but what that what that killing resulted in was really an outpouring of far right nationalist at times neo nazi anti immigration crowds on the streets at times turned violent the police were really struggling to keeping control that's an area where this picked up a lot of support the big problem is going to come now is how they're going to form some form of coalition in these 2 states because the major parties the established parties i guess you call them now both states have said they will not work with

alternative for germany that means you probably looking at at least a 3 party coalition in both states a well quite confluences coalition a real broad church is going to have to be put in there because of the large chunk the large proportion of the votes that alternative for germany have picked up in both the states of brandenburg and saxony here in germany. martin dolls are a hamburger and pay for the left party told us the f.d.a. is riding on the back of false promises. if he has an agenda and real that is based on centric nationalism militarism. liberalism as well as racism exclusion interest on 2 models success of the f.d.a. is warning but it's also hopefully the government's this happens on the fundamental of the last 30 years of german politics 30 years of your liberalism is politics destroyed the humans problem and at least of the german society and the left.

didn't find the clue to really criticize the call it takes which is conducted in the moment consequently enough that is a problem and it's a problem as well to my mind. they are. acting very one sided rainfall it is false this which feeds the ideology of the deepest longest that happen. to not be easy to have a u. turn to change the whole politics. for a 2nd day a vigil for the victims of the most deadly terror attack and modern russian history is being held 334 were killed mostly children during a siege in which over a 1000 people were taken hostage at a school in the north a cent in town of beslan. most

hostages were kept in this room the sports hall beslan is a small town a close knit community you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in this room that had lost someone or knew someone who had. good people would you be every year we come here to the school and the cemetery to the cemetery every month even my sister in law is buried there with her 2 kids it's always sad when vigils unite people in mourning what happened here is hard to forget but life goes on it is. what's left of the whole unites everybody here police and soldiers who try to save your kid medics who run into the fire to evacuate the wounded parents and

teachers who stayed with their kids and people's hostages. the walls here were lined with flowers soft toys of course the photographs of those who died also bottles of drink symbolic as the terrorists had denied any food or water to the hostages for the 3 days of the siege but the time i had a chance to escape many were to dehydration and weak to move hearing the experiences of those who were here is truly horrific as people inside began to faint dr lisa moments of our help to have a she could the terrorists gave her notes with their demands to pass on to authorities they threatened to kill her son if she made a wrong move yes the only is the subs they do i said i'm a doctor so they took me to the corridor to get 1st aid to someone who wanted terrorist. in the gymnasium it was very hard to breathe most of the kids were running a fever and. they told the adults not to faint or they risk being killed as

a terrorist didn't want any burden i asked them to let me go and i had to carry a message for them they let me come to the school entrance they were holding my son saying if i went out of the door that killed both of us immediately. there is a story isn't the only miracle escape that day alina was 9 when she was seized along with her family she turned 10 the next day while still a hostage she sees her rescue as a 2nd birthday changing her life forever to the north but all times of moving the blast wave knocked me and my brother back to one side an hour and to another after the blast site opened my eyes and saw the special forces soldier screamin anyone still alive get out of here that was my browser to the cloakroom and we heard the special forces soldier say be careful where you fire your kids here and then we went out through the window sometimes we need was my classmates to visit the school

for us there is life before and life after 15 years later for many the memories are as warm as ever. some come here seeking answers an explanation of how such a thing could have happened others simply light a candle and share an embrace to get some closure all i you know i think in one fact this can never be forgotten and can never be repeated i know hawkins. the memorial cemetery where victims of the attack are buried is known as the city of angels we talked to people there who are paying their respects. position or more of the ankle. which in our muscles the right story sort of or single.

harsher than previous generations of americans if you look at these problems the fact that it's impacting almost every millennial it's not just a question of someone else it's a you know countrywide and even continent wide problem the conditions that our parents and our grandparents where they had good paying jobs right out of high school didn't even need to go to college go to traits whatever and have no student debt and still be able to support a family it's just not the case anymore educational debt is a problem for millions of young americans adults ages $22.00 to $38.00 have double the amount of educational debt as gen x. ers the previous generation that came before this might be due to a 100 percent increase in the cost of college tuition despite the job market benefits of having a degree going down significantly also don't have much in terms of wealth and property net household worth is down 40 percent from the previous generation and 66 percent have no retirement savings less than 37 percent own stocks furthermore the

know their interests you know republicans pick a share increase child care more infrastructure spending that will create jobs higher wages now donald trump says the fears about the economy are unfounded he's even said that the usa is having an economic miracle now all americans are nervous but one particular generation that never really recovered from the financial meltdown of 2008 they may not have very many houses cars or stocks but they've got plenty to lose. r.t. new york. french luxury brand dior has axed its latest perfume ad starring a guitar wielding johnny depp that's after it was slammed for its depiction of a native american dancer. at an event in. the campaign had only been one for a few hours before d. removed it from social media critics accuse your of cultural appropriation saying
