or of paralyze patients have receive brain implants that allow them to move a computer cursor or control robotic arms but medical breakthroughs a side allowing the big business the attack and then by extension the surveillance state into the path waves of our brains has many rightfully nervous so today are we ready to lose our heads to the humdrum of consumer can be when some convenience and social media well my friends let's find out as we start watching the hawks. the. real thing that's what. i do. but like you i got. with. the. walk we're going to watching the hawks are able to read and i'm tired of

a lot less and joining us today to discuss the legal and ethical end of the new brain to computer interfaces it is legal and media analyst lionel offline on media thanks for joining us. i like the ethical part because when it comes out the x. your guy. was sued the ethics i am the standard bearer of that don't laugh i am you know i may both you and me we're not going but i love your this show right now is looking i think many people still believe that this type of technology is you know buried deep in our future but we actually are very close to this becoming reality and i was reading some words like within 5 years even line are you ready to let facebook read your thoughts rather than take the time to type them. promise me this well 1st let me thank you for talking about this because i have been screaming about this to the point where people are saying is he being about this because we have this cutesy idea about it's not great like robots isn't that

great a i r 2 d 2 how sweet danger will robinson oh i love technology which is the way it always comes about. let me ask you this question in reverse you know when we have. this perennial subject of today aqua fatty or trans union had millions and millions of of social security numbers hacked that people go crazy one have somebody hacked my brain to start off without one that's amazed up anything you put in me anything that you are able to either through telepathy or telemetry or anything how about this reading minds through my vocalisations you know when we think something believe it or not we sometimes say it and there are little pieces of almost that tape as you can place on or about the the throat area to pick up actually pick up micro vocalisations how many times have you watched

something thought about something and on your screen lo and behold google wants to sell you that. burial plot when you were thinking about and passing away now there is a rule here if you're hearing about it now it's 5 years old but anything you hear now and then what they do is they also they enter it they start to talk about it like maybe one of these days we could sucker berg says you know maybe one day we'll be able to do to 2 thought coming and facebook them is already in the works so my question is who prevents or even thinks about not the evil dr no word somebody but somebody who just wants to hack your thought change your thought affect ability perhaps create the perfect warrior the perfect student the perfect spouse the politician i mean where does this end and is anybody even

thinking about it those are my course those are those are really good question where are those available. and which brings me to want of what you said the. might well of a vacuum. if i think one of the biggest concerns is this idea of taking something that could be really brilliant to help you know people with physical disabilities and all of that and turning it into this idea of neuro capitalism and cyclists they should have our data you know i am all for if we can help people with that but what is this idea of neuro capitalism and what are some of the dangers you know that it can represent to people you know we're all walking around looking for you know a little alexa to just make life a little easier but what's the danger and that well the danger is number one is unregulated because there's nobody and this is i think of the most important part is that when somebody comes up with this there is never the ask the system valving because we are so tech crazy i'm a tech nerd hey i'm

a silicon valley guy i've got this new thing where you look at you look at a phone and it opens it isn't that cool. when you have a generation that has been. and brought up in captivity who doesn't even appreciate what the notion of privacy means how my supposed for the 1st part 1st time introduce them to it then begins to into the notion of transhumanism let me talk about that for a moment isn't it great that somehow we can actually by virtue of science. allow somebody who has lost a limb to to have it replaced and to have it done say mostly through thought yes what could go wrong the 1st person who ever made the night food said i have this great device here it cuts and i can use it to skin animals and here would you like to see it and he would like probably stab you know alfred nobel we know those stories so every single thing that we've ever done whether it's from the you know the aspirin probably to now has saved more lives probably wouldn't even be allowed

in the market today it's that dangerous so what's it going to be and that all of that is going to come under being presented right now because a researcher at zurich marcelo has proposed a sort of international recognize right specific to our thoughts and our brains in response to this new technology in fact chiller has 2 bills that would make brain data protection a human right but they cannot go in and mess with your thoughts take your thoughts mess with your mind business or governments and i ask you is that what we should be talking about should that be in the halls of congress do we need to clarify a set of rights for our our thoughts and our minds or does our existing laws already protect them do or does our bill of rights already have that protection and would just be overkill. bill of rights no but you're on to something how do i take a generation and because let's face it the older generation were gone for in the back 9 nobody cared about us but the you but but the newer folks ok and i speak

only for myself here but if i could somehow take the interest that we had over night in ringback paper. 1st straws recently it was something i would say are you seeing this people who don't care about anything war as our eyes jim all did nothing but all of a sudden by god we're not going to have plastic straws if i could say good you have that in you you have a sente and part of you you have an impasse think part of you now let's see if i can take that a step further let's talk about somebody taking over your mom and taking over your and don't be don't let some smooth talker come in to say listen tyrrel a taboo that whenever a comedian speaks he's affecting your opinion whenever somebody shows you a film we understand that that's what makes us human beings stop the gobbledygook

and the poppy cock and stop this what we're talking about is simply this do we have either ombudsman do we have our own ethical standards where we say yes go ahead and implant something to stop seizures we're all for that however you have to satisfy us that this device cannot be put in to make a person more malleable to make him voted a particular way to make him buy something or that's that's what we as a citizenry have to do collectively we most over want to do it thank you for using the word poppycock by the way not all of what i mean you know those are the words you have to offer is a poison of your own but it's a once or. thank you. tragedy struck off the california coast on monday as a commercial dive boat caught fire just in the water near santa cruz island with more than 30 people reported to have been killed by the fire and many are now left

wondering just how this tragic fire happened in the 1st place and what if anything could have been done to prevent prevent it r.t. america correspondent natasha suite has more. such a rare horrific tragedy on this labor day weekend and after 20 bodies have been recovered another 14 remain missing and authorities say that after 7 missions and no signs of life they have called off all search and rescue efforts 5 crew members were able to survive let's take a listen to the distress call made by the captain experienced. you just heard the captain of the conception call into the coast guard after waking up to a massive boat fire around 3 30 am monday just east of santa cruz island 75 vessel was carrying 33 passengers and 5 crew members 34 of the 39 aboard the boat were reportedly sleeping below deck when the fire broke out and in the distress call to the coast guard dispatch was asking the captain if he could unlock the lower deck

so the passengers could escape but according to officials the boat was fully in safety compliance right there is nobody that's really the key problem because the majority of the people were the passengers on the ship and the sleeping compartment is in the bottom deck of the ship so they would have been sound asleep when this fire started so you can imagine that of all scenarios to be in a remote location had a fire that occurs have eliminated any firefighting capabilities that could address that and then they have all the center fire discredit very very rapidly. you couldn't ask for a worse situation 20 victims have been transported to the coroner's office 11 females and 9 males diverse spotted another 4 to 6 victims within the wreckage the captain and 4 crew members jump. in the water and were rescued by a good samaritan with a boat called the great escape the owner of that boat says there would have been more than enough room for everyone to leave the burning boat and to safely be transferred back to the marina the vessel reportedly sink to the ocean floor about

20 yards from the shore 4 hours after the fire began right now it's sitting upside down in 62 feet of water diving excursion to explore san miguel island left on saturday and was jus back monday evening and as the family and friends remain in the state of shock authorities have set up an assistance center and their officials are hoping to give loved ones the information they need and a psychological care if so desired and authorities are still trying to determine the cause of that deadly fire in ventura county natasha suites. as with rogers don't forget to let us know you think about topics to cover the social media be sure to check out watch watch the podcast with his neighborhood watch spotify open because everywhere you will see the pod coming up with us president donald trump holding your campaign fundraiser in beverly hills some democratic celebrities are calling for the list of the to be published in the new hollywood blacklist be in the works let's find out the truth.

to teach the student actually a person to be wrong or should stop him speeding. ever since the arrival of boris johnson to 10 downing street there's a growing sense of inevitability that brags it will be executed on october 31st with or without a deal how did we get to this point what lessons have been learned and ready ready ready. i am sure to stop at the continuing to grow. i just never know very good about the idea of bringing children into the world because i didn't

feel like things were in very good shape that a life was just going to be a lot of software programs. there's no reason we're more to. take things that are to me that. there's no reason to make something else that isn't. everybody's scared to talk about it survival is truly dependent on us addressing this issue and if we can't even talk about it and we can even have a conversation about it then. we're in trouble ready.

the protests in hong kong show no signs of stopping even in the face of threats of force from the police and even as a number of activists with the with the mint within the movement were arrested over the weekend r t america's michelle green's thing is in hong kong the latest. these days in hong kong what starts as a peaceful rally often turns violent citing this violence the hong kong police banned a march that had been planned for saturday they warned that anyone in attendance would be liable for arrest refraining from or unlawful valan. but that didn't stop thousands of hong kong ers who came out to march anyway fight for freedom stand with hong kong liberate hong kong and hong kong is not china these are all chance that i've been hearing this afternoon it's saturday and protesters have been out in full force for the better part of the day even though those marching were breaking the law hong kong police wouldn't make the 1st arrest until much later. as saturday

evening sets in protesters around government headquarters police hold up a warning that reads disperse or we fire some try sending flares and petrol bombs over the barricades as police stand on the roof with rifles at 6 pm someone sets one of the barriers on fire eventually the pepper spray comes out then the tear gas and finally a water cannon sometimes it's laced with blue dye away for the police to identify suspects later as the sun sets hundreds of riot police move in to break the siege demonstrators warn each other and retreat here you can see some of the bricks that the protesters have been throwing at the police we also saw some petrol bombs being thrown by these demonstrators as well now over here you can see that riot police have arrived to push back against the protesters that were approaching the legislative council now that this caused all the demonstrators to start marching that way after retreating from government headquarters protesters build

a massive barricade and set it on fire using petrol bombs it's about 7 30 pm and a fire has broken out in the one shy district now this is right in front of the headquarters of the hong kong police. the fire department arrived. at this point the. cers have advanced to the next flashpoint causeway bay the police are not far behind at causeway bay protesters prepare for the arrival of the riot police on the front lines they tied tripwire their arms and bricks and cocktails when our camera man tries to record these weapons protesters shield them with umbrellas and i was able to get some of this footage with my own when tear gas is eventually thrown by the police protesters through the canisters back the night culminates in 63 people being arrested for criminal damage possession of offensive weapons and explosives and illegal assembly since the protest had been banned on sunday protesters set up a barricade around the airport with luggage carts they disable security cameras and

damaged property they blocked access to the airport and forced travelers to walk miles into the city their damage of the nearby metro station forces its closure monday night remnants of the weekend's events hang in the air the demonstrators have blocked both the red and the yellow lights at this traffic stop to have the sign read free hong kong now it's monday evening and the scene here in front of the government headquarters is actually pretty calm we've had students mostly young people i got to say i have not seen a single person that looks over $25.00 in this crowd here tonight hong kong police say a total of 159 people were arrested over the weekend the situation remains fluid and beijing has reminded the international community of its authority to declare a state of emergency in hong kong if the unrest and disorder persists through watching the hawks michelle greenstein r t. 1947 the house committee on un-american activities

a pain i just started with $79.00 hollywood actors screen writers and producers on the claim that they were subversive and that they injected communist propaganda into their films now some are comparing the cold war's darkest days what america turned on and turned in their fellow americans for the crime of having a political view. some did not like which brings us to 2019 when the hollywood reporter no did that president tromp would be attending a fundraiser in beverly hills that's when television actress debra messing calls for the hollywood reporter to quote please print to a list of all attendees please the public has a right to know of course political contributions are public record and massing along with anyone else can find out who has given money to the trump campaign all by themselves then only in the hollywood reporter however the idea of make an a list of people who may have attended a political oven smells distinctly like 50 shades of mccarthyism and a make matters even weirder massing took the attention on her comments to post an

invitation to texter or 4 more in-depth private discussion with the will and grace star take a listen twitter is grade but i wanted of way to communicate about issues and to go more deeply then we can on twitter so text me crazy. maybe but what is entirely unsettling for so many is whether debra messing scholes for lists will stop at the top brass of producers and financier's or will it spread to which cinematographers caterers and production assistants will be allowed to work how many will lose their careers their homes their livelihoods for another cold war red scare that history will of this array just as brutally as it did the last one and will those like messing ever understand how dangerous their rhetoric

truly can be boy that's a that is a really good question because i don't know at this point when i see folks do you know what i see her doing something like this i have to sit back and say dude are you not aware of the shaky ground you're walking on calling for maims to be maimed and i'm not a supporter of donald trump the republican party's right and watching mashona like nobody here is like telling mine for a trial. but this is this is not how you know this is not how you know of all things in hollywood given the history that you mention you should not be asking for it was it like you said they could look at it online i know who gives them money google it learn how politics * actually works before you're going to suddenly put yourself on this this pedestal of being this great political leader and you know it's one thing if you are actually a politician if you work in some sort of industry that that has to work with the government and you want to do that but if you are going to put yourself in

a position like debra messing where she is an actress who is becoming politically involved which i'm all for you should speak up but this way it's this is like slowly poking at people and there's something else about this whole like tax rate which i know that when some of your end up the conversation text me i'm like well i'm one of my 19 i'm not a texter and you all for that but so i want to just talk about what is really so what like her idea of text me isn't great but i realize that the phone number she put up to tag just isn't really a phone number it's one of those voice over ip like skype phone number which is fine so i decided to text her and ask if. she after texting her so you get a response that says hey it's deborah. you know like this is an auto response you know here we go but in order to get a response from her you now next must give you your 1st and last name gender

identity birthday and city and it's much as i could see from this what other people have reported you absolutely have to put your birthday and i centrally her entire call to engage people comes off like a big old data capture scam what is she going to do with all my information what are you who are you giving this list to and again if you're going to say like we're going to do this why are you then making at this but you have to sign up and give me your information if twitter is so what's the difference thank you if you're on twitter or just talk to if that's what you want to do engage with people they're not under your terms and which you can then surveil them and keep track of them this is exactly how this stuff and the in the problem as it did back in the 1st red scare and you know the other not the only one and i'm not you know lee dirty liberal who. has run you are you sure you with with ms will be goldberg or so choose other groups on the view or really want to respond to

resonate with this quote saying listen the last time people did this people in the killing themselves this is not a good idea ok your idea of who you don't want to work with is your personal business do not encourage people to print out a list because the next list that comes out your name will be on and then people be coming after you that's exactly a good point because whatever whatever you do to protest the other side's going to do a protest by example only seen that over and over again i mean we see it and there's always a pushback there is blowback to whatever gets done especially when it's a rational you know like do you think 1st of all it's the same of the same conservatives who is going to be at this who's going to whoever will be we must know it's such a i'll tell you who dean cain. james woods probably. angeles . boy john boy are probably going to be there it's like literally it's a handful of people you know and a bunch of financier is an executive producers and people who have nothing to do with the movie business just because it's in beverly hills not everybody in beverly

hills is a movie. and again i just don't like the idea of this idea like she said that was not a good time it was not a good time especially when you consider yourself a liberal democrat you know because that was a time where they were specifically targeted they specifically targeted targeted unions that the reds were not as i would get the entire point of what happened in hollywood started because there were 2 major strikes from the unions there that affected the hollywood bottom line and that is why you then had people like ronald reagan go up in front of congress and say that the league of women voters was a communist front and that all of these unions and everything were going to ruin america with their you know commie movie isn't everything so when you think about the people that charlie chaplin's and all these people who were were blocked listed and well you say there was just over anything people used it and this is going to

be the new thing if you don't want someone to be in a movie and you want you want to get their parts you just point in time and go your account me your original study and vote and so you know you're oh yeah you know whatever your employer is let's see curious like if you go roll busy this back i mean look we all know fox news and trump had a little bit of problem but ultimately fox news member support each other so what are you going to do deborah hawks is owned by disney how are you not at this point when only 6 companies were there to do business more that's ridiculous i mean it's because they're spot on so everybody has a right to their political beliefs but at the end of the day we've got a you know you can't be let loose like this well we kept pushing yeah all right everybody that is our show for you to remember on in this world we're not told that real love to tell you all. i am a robot and have a lot of people watching those arcs that were great there but.

this is a stick from the water bottle found in the stomach of a fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers they're the bad ones they're the litter bugs are throwing us away industry shouldn't be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. as soon as school sets in their classes. the new phones at a special projects funded me. on the dizzy end of a footy team the fun now the mountains of waste only grow higher.
