2:02 am
serving a prison sentence in the u. s. for hawking hospital. he says he did that to draw attention to the cost of the buffer between the facility and the parents of a child being kept there without their consent. mister got spelled recently turned to us after he was denied telephone access to his lawyers. me. mr. golf felt wife say's communication with his lawyer was cut off shortly after he wrote an article published on our team website in the p. c describes cases of mistreatment out the prison he's being held in. the authorities though, say his lack of coals were simply done to changes in their corporate policy. we discussed the case with bar bryan, a journalist, an activist who was himself imprisoned in connection with a data leak. and also, dana gods felt they read all of his mail. so they had a heads up on what was coming. they shouldn't at legal privilege mail,
2:03 am
but i guess i guess they were aware. he has multiple attorneys who are trying to get in touch with him for meetings about strategic matters. he answered an appeal and they're like just and other stuff in court and they just can't reach him. they're telling him that they, catherine fear voltage that bureaus prison lawyer is telling them that she can only let him speak to them if they have upcoming court deadlines. where she's not applying that requirement to any of the other. it's laurie himself over throughout the entire was imprisonment, has been retaliated against 4 other articles. he's written or lawsuits. he has filed against the system against the visual wardens and so forth. nothing done for years. and feds myself, the prison, the u. s. for my activism and having written,
2:04 am
calling from prison. i've been in prisons where there wasn't a lot. i've been in prisons where, you know, i was, i was pulled off the phone what the course of doing, interview the interview and put in the show for doing that interview and then release after investigation. 2 weeks later, i was re arrested because these orders in 2017 forgetting interview advice after i got out of prison. no one has been involved in activism should be tried in the us, nor ca shredded there. they just did the record of the us saw it on this is just a mentally vile. 7 years ago martin got spelled huck the computer servers of boston childrens hospital. he sees his actions were aimed up exposing a months long custody possible between the facility and the parents of 15 year old justina peltier. just in his mother and father had been disputing her diagnosis by the doctors which they had changed from a rare blood disorder to a mental condition and forcibly separated the teenage girl from her family. just
2:05 am
seeing that was eventually re united with her parents after a public outcry. but gulf felt was arrested and these know serving a 10 year term as soon in community management union. those units were created as part of the war on terror and were done by the media as little one town of most, all communications but the outside world are monitored. there are restricted while typical inmates include terrorists, those linked to piracy and also my fear members, golf felt wife claims his placement. there is staggering the excessive and highlighted issues her husband had with the judge hearing the case. i think that's what really set him off. was it marty, expose his conflicts of interest in the case? judge. nathaniel gordon donate to the adoption agency that often partners and has received donations from boston childrens hospital. and likely the agency that they
2:06 am
would have used to get just adopted into another family. remember they took the custody away from just, parents made her aware of the state. and then the next step is to get her adopted into another family. the government wanted to use the work where a terrorist in the judge said no. because to nathaniel gordon, who hates marty, said you can't use that word. that's not what this was. but after trial, they put him in a unit for terrorists. it makes no sense even a previous prison correctional officers recognize that this is a political case. i think that's why he's in the c. m. u. now in terms of reaction, we've contacted both the judge on the adoption center for comment. we also asked leading rights organizations both in the u. s. and world wide for their take on mr . golf spells case. the european court of human rights and human rights watch big players told us they can't comment on the issue. while the executive director of
2:07 am
the human rights defense center paul right sees the law behind. martin got to felt imprisonment is open to different interpretations. the probably close and a lot of our laws is that it doesn't require necessarily a malicious attempt to, you know, to access a computer. and the last name is vert, fairly vague. in terms of what to prescribe. the government, i think, is very happy with the act because the united states, you know, benefit greatly frowning bank laws that they can basically twist to meet the circumstances of the day or, or whatever it is for seeking to accomplish a moment. and the united states is, especially in the last 30 years or so, has become almost expert at drafting and imposing very broadly worded vague. was that impose, you know, fairly devastating sentences. meanwhile, questions about the proportionality of us cyber laws. something raised for some
2:08 am
time, ortiz daniel hawkins, can take us through aspect go spells wasn't the 1st case, headlines suits the computer fraud and abuse act came into force. i don't schwartz, the activist and harvard research fellow was charged under the c. f. a, with numerous violations at 1st facing up to 35 years in jail, for downloading and releasing academic journals to make them available to all the case. drove him to suicide journalists, matthew keys spent 2 years in prison for providing login detail as to a news website that resulted in the crime of a headline being to go through actions also had consequences, though his intentions may have been good and the resulting damage, arguably minimal, this crime, he was jailed alongside the very worst in the penal system, among them both convicted of involvement with terrorism, piracy, and matthew membership. his unit is commonly called one's hannah mode north,
2:09 am
which gives you some idea of life inside. the communications management unit is established to house inmates who, due to their current defense of conviction, offense, conduct, or other verified information, require increased monitoring of communications with persons in the community to protect the safety, security, and orderly operation of bureau facilities and protect the public golf felt as complained of being placed in solitary confinement just for voice and concerns about the treatment of inmates among those failings in the hands of coded cases which have led to prison a death. he also accuses prison, staff of punitive measures blocking his communication with lawyers and media. i was a journalist in prison for, for 13 years, for many years in washington state. i was routinely retaliated against and punished for being critical of prison officials on some respect. i think that probably goes with the territory and is the norm. i think in general,
2:10 am
bureaucrats was pretty much total on check. power tend to not view favorably, those who question that power and any abuses of that power. so i would say it was certainly would surprise me if he weren't needing retaliated by prison officials, gospel case will continue to draw attention and discussion. do ends justify means should activists acting on good intentions and altruism be treated equally with korea criminals? how many broken lives? does it take the reform obsolete laws? and how much difference can the actions of one person on a mission really make me a lot of interest about this next story to huge privacy concerns about over apples plans. the start scanning u. s. i phones for child abuse, pictures. it follows years of pressure from success of american governments
2:11 am
demanding increased surveillance of encrypted data and additionally, new safety protection tools, world war and children on their parents. when sexually explicit photos or a center received, apple will automatically scum for the child abuse related material even before it's uploaded to the icloud storage service. if cases are confirmed, the user's account will be deactivated on the national center for missing and exploited children. notified whistleblower edward snowden has waited on the issue condemning the tech giant new policy. unbelievable apple now circulating a propaganda letter describing the internet while opposition to the decision to start checking the private files on every i phone against the secret government, blacklist as the screeching voices of the minority. this has become a scandal to say that we are disappointed by apples plans is an understatement. apple's compromise on end to end encryption,
2:12 am
may p government agencies in the u. s. and broad. but is a shocking about face for users who rely on the companies, leadership and privacy and security. and just following on the theme, we discuss the issue and its wider ramifications with a number of guest. what kind of algorithm are they going to use? that is able to scan billions of images and then segregate something that is not, let's say, a bear skin rug photo or some form of accept. i don't know what except the bowl nudity is. but something that is innocent, something that is not in any way nefarious. how is it going to be able to determine what is and isn't appropriate? they'll be looking for, according to reports i've seen, known and already classified and sex abuse images and which is like and that database and how those algorithms are used to search computers.
2:13 am
and such like apple is refused to open the front back door to the encryption following cases of, of terrorism, thus murder, rapes, kid not being what happened suddenly with this particular cause. yes, it is a good causing and important cause that makes our poll, you know, just go completely the other way in. i think the answer is, is the apple is probably exploiting the subject of child exploitation in order to enroll something that it feels. this is the only way page to sugar coated. few think you will have some kind of privacy interest in this. if you think that this photo and your cloud belongs to you, and you can tell the company that you've contract it, either through their hardware or whatever that to, to back off, stay out of your business. i mean, are we, are we serious?
2:14 am
do we really think this even remotely as possible for us to tell big tech to back off, leave us alone stay. i don't want affairs, it's already done. it's are the fact that they're even saying that they, they don't even have to tell us they're doing this. we know it. there are billions of users around the world. the vast majority have not got any child sexual abuse imagery, and so they don't need to worry about that. old damage is going to be scan. where are they going to go next? well, i going to look for trigger words for other things. well, the images of all the things, where are they going to draw a line in this whole is becoming a de facto agency of the government. even though they say we're not going to hand over information to the police. the 1st the will but, but, but in any event they will be sharing the information with other government agencies. so, so then now becoming an agent of the state, we are keeping
2:15 am
a close eye this saturday on france. that is where more than 150 demonstrations are set to take place throughout the day, against president microns mandatory cobit vaccination plans. numerous trade unions medical groupings among them, they are rallying their members against the move in date earlier in the week and for weeks previous to the people in paris, voice their anger on the street after front as constitutional counsel ruled that the government moves our legal, our europe correspond, peter, all of our takes off the story. frances braced for another weekend to protest to be the 4th in a row. the news
2:16 am
on thursday, the french constitutional counsel ruled in favor of a change to the law. that will make sure that a health path has to be shown in order to enter cafe bars, restaurants, even long distance trains. those places to the list that already included cultural sites, like museums, theaters, and cinemas, with more than 50 people in attendance. now while over half of the population supports the use of these health classes, there is a small but very vocal minority who are vehemently opposed to them. for much i see this is a betrayal for french people. it's segregation and a form of apartheid with the vaccination on one side and unvaccinated on the other . i speak on behalf of everyone, little angry. it's not that we against the vaccine, but we have no hun said because it is only 6 months old. this is come to the french don't want it. we know very well that on the constitutional council that people are
2:17 am
close to power and will not go against power. in france, the 7 day average for new covert cases is solidly over $20000.00 per day. in germany, it's one to 2 and a half 1000 wising steadly, the health minister again spawn is team to implement your restrictions before cases get to the levels seen in front. a must school and negative tests should be required for essential things such as traveling on public transport. going to the town hall over the thing, a hospital with nightclubs visiting stadiums or go into the theater places. as a more of a luxury, i can only imagine entry being granted to those people who have been vaccinated or tested for hope is that by prioritizing the vaccinated when it comes to access to public spaces, serious cases of covert will be reduced. mr. san bucks, a 3 g approach for those that are in which means vaccinated tested who are being tested,
2:18 am
knees and who have recovered. although that could be revised down to 2 g approach showed cases rise, including only the vaccinated and those who have recovered from covert. but this policy has been roundly jumped on draconian and overly exclusionary by politicians, including those who are in coalition with german health minister spon. i think it is wrong and legally invalid to exclude those who are not vaccinated from public life. no one should be excluded. instead, we need to convince people early and government policies haven't gone down well with a section of the german population who are involved in crashes with police. the protest had been banned by german court and police officers, a facing investigation for a heavy handed response to the crowd. italy, is it a more similar situation to germany than from when it comes to code that case against, from friday you need to present a covert past due in to
2:19 am
a whole rest of places. prime minister drunky pushing vaccination is the only way to avoid further locked down. the delta vary interest threatening. his spreads much more quickly than other variance without vaccinations would have to close everything again. here of continue to fight, not only against the virus itself, but against the policies that are being put in place to try and stop it spread control over our fee harris. the parents of a brain damage to euro, talk to or have lost their appeal to europe in court of human rights. they're trying to stop the u. k. hospital with drawing life support treatment for the little girl. their lawyer spoke to us. parents want to be in this position and they competed by their family as a community and they keep an experience office as best they can
2:20 am
a bit. it is obviously a very tricky situation. her condition has been stable for 2 years. now. we know that taking her by a transport will not be a detriment to her what we have peace at the hospital will agree that little to can be transferred to, to israel and to a hospital all for hi repeat to a willing to look after the parents of alta fix, lar, who are acidic jews, same withdrawing her life support goes against their religious faith. they want to take her either to israel or to the u. s. for assessment and possible treatment. the u. k. hospital say she has no chance of recovery. i'm not such a journey would only bring her further pain. the family's lawyer again outlined his thoughts about the judge's ruling. when you take the case to the european court, you're affectively taking the case against the government. because you are saying
2:21 am
that the processes that we used were wrong and should have been, should have been better, they weren't properly applied. and so the position in a case like this is one where very often cases to the european court of human rights on successful. so it was one where you're asking the court to look at processes and procedures and it's, it's easier in a way for the european court of human rights to say, well, actually we don't, we don't find this is a problem here. then actually getting into the minucci case still ahead in the program ceiling to a new record, the highest daily figure for illegal migrants making the journey across the english shuttle from mainland europe to the u. k. and i'm plenty more besides
2:23 am
me dares thing. we dare to ask me. oh, hello again. a record number of illegal migrants crossed the english channel to reach the u. k. in a single day this week, taking the total number of arrival so far this year to more than $10000.00. it comes amid reports that refugees helping to quarantine in hotels, paid for by taxpayers are not having their cobra isolation enforced. while returning british holidaymakers are facing daily calls on police checks, ortiz alysia to mature,

but has been getting reaction to accommodate the surgeon. a solid seekers to home office has spent tens of millions of pounds on bulk booking, full bought hotels to be used as a temporary housing. a number of these are located in the hearts of major u. k. cities including london and manchester. many of the new arrivals have come from the countries of the high levels of corona virus. british travelers still have to fork out nearly 2000 pounds for mandatory quarantine in the hotel is coming from a red list. country reports have also merged, claiming that hundreds of migraines thing and hotels have been breaching quarantine rules due to poor security enforcements and the premises. some security guards even admitted that they could not control quarantine because they do not know who is supposed to be self isolating. we decided to try and catch up with some of the migraines, whose hotel stays, are being funded by the british taxpayer. and it looks like we're going to have to call the police if you'd only site the private property. no luck enough. first

attempt, we were asked to leave the premises immediately off to kingston. remove more centrally to london. consistent district managed to speak to refugee from libya. he told me he's allowed to leave his room for a cigarette during quarantine. to go out under the photos of the 5 to 10 minutes. most of the new come as a started in hotels around london. me in england like 10 months, 10 months in the summer house, in an exclusive area like this one. who does, he generally don't come cheap. we ask local what they thought the people seem to me to be very well behave. and i haven't noticed studies or problems in the area. this is offensive idea. they can only hear, you know, does that sound like, you know, thinking they are eating smoking, you know, the home office insist that hotel accommodation is only

2:27 am
governor to resign, he should resign the people of new york. is there a better leadership in the governor's office? we continue to believe that the governor should resign. yeah, and it gets bigger than not on tuesday, the new york state attorney general published details alleging that cuomo had committed assault against 11 women in his office, including cases on wanted touching, kissing, and inappropriate comments. the actions are considered a violation of both state and federal laws, but there is currently no criminal investigation planned. andrew cuomo denies all allegations. earlier this year, the attorney general fund cuomo administration had attempted to hide the covert mortality rate as well in nursing homes. thousands of debts been under reported, which led to a public outcry, but again, there has been no legal consequences for the governor to date. we discuss the issue
