files of uses, the child sex abuse content. we discussed the issue with a panel of experts. how was going to be able to determine what is and isn't appropriate effectively creates a back door to, to up to, to apples devices. where are they going to draw a line in? ah, good afternoon. thanks for joining us. watching artie international the took here lympics may be coming to a conclusion this weekend, but the su plenty of action making lots of headlines. for example, for the 1st time since $996.00. a russian athlete has been pitt to the gold medal in the rhythmic gymnastics. the highest award goes to israel spy thereat late. dropping her ribbon during her performance with the details, his anti sucky tailor be 2020 turn your games have not been short on trauma. that's
9:02 am
for sure, and one of the biggest upsets has come on the pin ultimate date and the sport of rhythmic gymnastics. now, heading into the final on saturday, already seen asking, you know, very not was the heavy favorite when she has oft rule. got 13 wild titles on her belt. what's more historic, the russians? how about dominated this sport? winning gold? at the last 5 straight lympics but took her 2020 has stopped that rain. a foreigner has gone home with the sofa, and now there are questions being raised as to whether she was in fact robbed. so what's the drama here? well, the thing is, is that the gymnast to beat her to gold is 22 rolled is raining noise ash. from during her ribbon routine, she drops her ribbon. you can actually see and the video that although she keep smiling like the performer that she absolutely, as she knows came down that this is a fault that will most likely dash her. chances are not gold medal, but no, apparently the judge has decided otherwise. because despite that serious hours she
9:03 am
went on to claim fast paced by margin of not point $15.00 points, leaving a foreigner who performed a totally clean performance about a single mistake with 2nd place. and by the way, making out from the only jim, nothing the history of the olympic games to win a goal despite dropping a piece of her parameters. and it's all of this combined that's let the r a c team to cry foul. dina hasn't lost, she has one, but unfortunately the reservation was a blatant injustice. you do not very that performed clean while the noise shrum unfortunately made a glaring mistake, which usually the judges would take off points for performance, technique and art. this isn't the fast qualm, the receipt team has had about fairness and it earlier raised concerns about unfair scoring. and previous performance is to protest how to box being lodged both what rejected and of course the wider atmosphere has to be taken into account here. the
9:04 am
tokyo games have not been the easiest to bride for russian athletes. they have seen open hostility, unintuitive skepticism all the time that they have been that they've seen the media around them even and tearing, to compete. they've had fellow sportsmen make pretty politicized gibes about doping . that's the, despite the fact that r a c, i think it's one of the most heavily tested contingents at tokyo sat me in light of with this. one has to hope that politics has not sealed a barrenness olympic fate, but really when you look at it with such a small point margin, with also such a serious arrow, people are such and wondering whether the judge has made the right cool. okay, let's bring his full color solid more to get a bit more analysis on this. appreciate you taking the time and the rush. shouldn't competitors in the rhythmic gymnastics clearly upset the comments they've made, including the, the russian team personally pick committee. as we are told,
9:05 am
we have to refer to them. the coach is clearly unhappy as well. is it sound great? not just waiting or is a legitimate complaint here? i think it's 5050 neo because back in 2016, but, you know, we, we have to understand is that the gymnastics, even domestic organization, they change the way of scoring. so now we're not 6, you get more points, has no ceiling on points. so the more amazing at rages advantage moves you make, you get more point. now, money people would say that he has been reduced to kind of like a circus. it is like on the surface, so labeled in your limping. so the more your difficulty you show, you perform and i'm sorry, say tricks, but it's like the moves that you, me, you get points for that even with object with dropped instance. or, you know, it's, you know, means you could, you get a handle like the ones that you perform feeling. so it's very,
9:06 am
very difficult. hard to say. there might be a bit of a fairness, but i think it's sarah grades. i think they're basically every athlete. if they don't win, will always find a reason to say this is wrong. i think, you know, we could say that maybe the judges were a bit harder on her because she was worship to both sisters, both twins, the awareness. what do you think in this case it is most likely the fact that israeli athletes over performed i'm, it is kind of bit of a mockery of the, of, of a sport that is actually quite beautiful to watch. yeah, i agree. this is, it is fantastic to watch, although it is one of those competitions where you have the contentious issue in that age. it's judged, it's scored by individuals. they're impartiality will often they brought into question you see often scandals with marks that are awarded. for example, in boxing, given what you've said about the political element, this kind of crept in towards the russian elim pick committee. and the way russian athletes have been treated in these games. it's other legitimate concern about
9:07 am
whether they would be scored fairly by these judges. we've heard a lot of it in, in diesel big games because for example, now we've had the times of london coming as and saying like, you know, that's the question marks over the italian sprinters. the same newspaper was picking up teams sky. i'm pretty citing on the british, even inviting in to license for christy to rice. guess. com. so, you know, it's kind of like when we look at, from our sites, they say, from russia and say over to being hired or not, i didn't, every country is picking on an order of them. but i do think, i do think because for example, the american swimmer who had been seconds in the max off on the back. so i said, all, well, you know, i can say a lot cleaner, not the russian one. you know, who knows, just by saying that it's got headlines and it should be say, this guy is a dope brand. it doesn't make a difference if he has dope, hasn't,
9:08 am
don't, you know. ringback it's just the fact that he's so important it is going to stick, and i think that that's what russia and not just russia are seeing the italians are seeing and even somebody are shot interesting as well. so i think it's basically whoever gets award in 1st is making it stick and really appreciate your time. thanks for your assessment. this sports column with alan moore. my guest like let sir continue now with our in depth coverage of the story. martin got out. he's currently serving a prison sentence in the united states for hacking a hospital. he says that they did that to draw attention to a custody battle between the facility in question and the parents of a child being without the consent. mr. goats felt recently, and he was after he was denied telephone access to his louis. ah,
9:09 am
mister got phelps, why says communication with his lawyer was cut off shortly after he wrote an article that was published on on his website in that p. c. describe cases of mistreatment, the prison where he's being held the authority. so say his lack, of course, was simply down to changes in the coven policy. we discussed the case with barrett brown, a journalist, an activist. he was himself imprisoned in connection with a data leak. and also with dana goats felt they read all his mail. so they had a heads up on what was coming. they shouldn't it's legal privilege mail, 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, sir, voltage that bureaus prison lawyer is telling them that she can only let him speak
9:10 am
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 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 the feds myself, the prison, the u. s. for my activism and having written, 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 here, 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 course where there is it just that the record of the us saw it on this is

9:12 am
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. it's likely the agency that they would have used to get just adopted into another family. remember they took the custody away from justine, 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 we're, we're a terrorist in the judge said, no, we did try 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 terrorist. 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. when we have contacted both the judge and the adoption center, the comment,
9:13 am
we also asked the leading rights organizations both in america and worldwide for the take on the case theater, being called human rights and human rights watch. so to say con, comment on the issue of the case has raise public concerns about the proportionality of us cyber laws. and for the 1st time with moral not his se, hawkins golf fels wasn't the 1st case headline. so the computer fraud and abuse act came into force. i don't schwartz, but activist and harvard research fellow was charged under the cna 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 guantanamo north, 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, fence 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,
9:15 am
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, bureaucrats was pretty much total on check. power tend to not view favorably, those who question the power and any abuses of that power. so i would say it was certainly would surprise me if he were needing retaliated by prison officials golf . those 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 still to come. this is the same right down the

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 an important cause that makes our poll, you know, just go completely the other way in a free. the answer is, is the police 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 and stay out of your business. i mean, are we, are we serious? do we really think this even remotely as possible for us to tell big tech to back
9:24 am
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? while i go to look for trigger was all the things or the images and 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 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, an investigation into the conduct of new york governor andrew cuomo is drawing to
