11:00 am
for i thought i was doing my best to get back to school, which still will have the strongest appeal the, the russian rhythmic gymnastics, team planes. that's been an injustice to the goldman went to israel. the spot directly draw things the ribbon during the performance and other use a job has to expose abusive conditions of the prison. anything out in is denied telephone access to the lawyer. his wife was branded to move in to vengeance. president lawyer telling me that she can only like to speak to them and they have upcoming court deadlines. whereas she's not applying that requirement to any of the others in the capitals been rocked by protests for a 4th consecutive week. we come to the parisians venting that ranga need encoded
11:01 am
health passes to access more public places like policy and restaurants. privacy activists psychos by thousands of apple over the tech. john's controversial plans to start scanning the files of users for child sex abuse content. we discussed the issue with a panel of excellent how are we going to be able to determine what is and isn't appropriate effectively creates a back door to, to up to, to apple devices. where are they going to draw a line? ah hi that very good evening and thanks for joining us here on the took your lympics maybe coming towards that conclusion this weekend, but the still lots of action making plenty of headlines for the 1st time since
11:02 am
$996.00, a russian at least been pitt to the gold medal and rhythmic gymnastics, the highest, the war going to israel, the spot there at least dropping the ribbon during her performance. and it caused a storm of control pursuit with the head coach of rushes, rhythmic gymnastics team guides so far as the suggest. it was a deliberate provocation, but the sheer of sla, blatant mistake and deliberate, and just as that had been premeditated as syria sarah, committed by in israel, the acid in no way prevent her from winning gold. i've never in my life made a single protest in history, not attend the olympics, a world cup or any other competition. now i filed 3 protests against politics, but this was just awful. and it's hard to explain it in any other way. perhaps these can be explained by the fact that russia has been winning for 20 years, and that it was important for someone to remove russia from the witness list. it was done in the most disgusting way. i think we will turn to thomas bog. but given these kinds of refereeing such as port may not exist in darlington family in the
11:03 am
future may 2020 take your games have not been shown on trauma. that's for sure. one of the biggest upsets has come on the pin ultimate date and the sport of rhythmic gymnastics. now heading into the final and say already seen asking tina very not was the heavy favorite when she has oft rule. got 13 wild titles under her belt. what's more historic, the russians, how about you? dominated this sport, winning gold at the last 5 straight lympics but took here 2020 has stopped that rain. a foreigner has gone home with silva 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 keeps smiling like the performance she absolutely, as she knows down that this is a fault that will most likely dash her chances out talk gold medal. but no,
11:04 am
apparently the judge has decided otherwise. because despite that serious hours, she went on to claim fast paced by margin of not point $15.00 points leaving varina, who performed a total clean performance without a single mistake with 2nd place. and by the way, making us from the only jim enough in the history of the olympic games to win a gold, despite dropping a piece of her parameters. and it's all of this combined. that's lead the r a c team to cry foul the 70. so could you compare this cause that is really actually caught in the preliminary round without that error. they were the same as what she got today with the error and didn't very know who performed 13 brilliantly and deserved high grade. got a lower one and last, it was a disgrace to the judges that were assigned to dina. very, now, this isn't the fast quam. the r a c team has had about fantasy did earlier raised concerns about unfair scoring, and previous performances to protest had in fact been lodged both what rejected and
11:05 am
of course, the wider atmosphere has to be taken into account here. the tokyo games have not been easiest to bride for russian athletes they have seen opened, still see on indeed skepticism all the time that they have been that they've seen the media around them, or even and tearing, to compete. they've had fellow sportsmen make pretty politicized gibes about doping up despite the fact that r a c, i think it's one of the most heavily tested, contingent at tokyo to 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 was such a small point margin with also such a serious arrow. people are such and wondering whether the judges made the right cool. have sports color. miss tyler moore says that a change to the rules is downgraded the importance of a perfect performance back in 2016. but, you know, we, we have to understand is that the gymnastics, even gymnastic organizations,
11:06 am
they change the way of scoring. so now we're not 6, you get more points, there's no ceiling on points. so the more amazing at rage is largest moves you make, you get more points. now money people would say that he has been reduced to kind of like a circus. it is like kind of surface olay, but in your limping. so the more your difficulty you show, you perform. sorry say tricks, but it's like the moves that you make. you get more points. it does even with the object with dropped instance or, you know, it still means you could to get ahead of the likely not the one that you perform telling continue. now with our in depth coverage of the story of martin gods felt he's currently serving a prison sentence in the united states for hacking a hospital. he says that he did that to draw attention to a custody battle between the facility and the parents of a child being kept without the consent. mr. goats felt recently turned to us after
11:07 am
he was denied telephone access to his lawyers. me tickets, felts wife says communication with his lawyer was cut off shortly after we wrote an article that was published on our teams website and did not pay c describe cases of mistreatment of the prison where is being held. the authorities say his lack of calls was simply down to changes in that coven policy. we discussed the case with barret brown, a journalist, an activist who was himself imprisoned in connection with the data link. and also we spoke with dana gods 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 other legit and other stuff in court and they just can't reach him. they're
11:08 am
telling him that they catherine, sir, vault his, that bureaus prison lawyer. and it's 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 the, throughout the entire him is 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, calling from prison, i've been in prison where there wasn't a lot over. i've been in prisons where, you know, i was, i was pulled off the phone what she's doing, interview media, interviewing and putting the show for doing that interview and then release after investigation. you know, 2 weeks later i was re arrested because these orders in 2017,
11:09 am
for getting interview advice after i got out of prison. no one has been involved in activism. should be tried in the us, nor course where they just did the record of the us saw it on this is just a mentally vile. 7 years ago mounting god's felt hacked, the computer service of boston childrens hospital. he said his actions were aimed at exposing a months long custody battle between the facility and the parents of 15 year old justina paulette now, justine, his mother and father have been displeasing her diagnosis by doctors. doctors had changed it from a red blood disorder to a mental condition and forcibly separated the teenage girl from her family. just think it was eventually reunited with the parents, but only after a public outcry. mister got so that was arrested. he's now serving a 10 year term of the so named communications management unit. now those units were created as part of the war on terror. they would by the meters, a little guantanamo ce, or communications with the outside world that are monitored and restricted. typical
11:10 am
inmates include terrorists, those link to piracy, matthew members. i think got felt wife claims is placement. there is staggering, 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 would have 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 word 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 and unit for terrorists. it makes no sense even
11:11 am
a previous prison correctional officers recognize that this is a political case. i think that's why he's in the c m. u. we've contacted both the judge and the adoption center, the comment. we also asked leading rights organizations both in america and will wide for their take on the case. the urban code of human rights and human rights watch told us that they cannot comment on the issue. the cases raise public concerns about the proportionality of you assign the laws and not for the 1st time moral, not his daniel hawkins goss fells, wasn't on the 1st case, hit headline. so the computer fraud and abuse act came into force. i don't schwartz, the 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
11:12 am
journalists, matthew keys spent 2 years in prison for providing login detail us 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
11:13 am
about the treatment of inmates among those failings in the hands of code 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, bureaucrats was pretty much total unchecked. power. tend to not view favorably those who question that power and then the abuses of that power. so i was say, it was certainly would surprise me if he were 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
11:14 am
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 the harm, should be proportionate to the sentence, not the potential harm. and increasingly, what we see, certainly in the us justice system, is this kind of trend of symbolic convictions and symbolic sentences, whereby the politicization of the justice system and the what used to be due process is become increasingly politicized. and i think we can see that in so many different cases, especially with the area of cyber crime or hacking, it seems that and i think maybe this just really speaks to the ability of hackers or hacked of ists to threaten the power structure which has become increasingly
11:15 am
dependent on digital networks, we only have to look really at the julian assigned case as, as the sort of top level sort of case in this area. he is absolutely a political prisoner and it's not so much about what he did. it's about what he represents and the ability of an organization to get around the powers of the state. demonstrations are taking place in paris right now against plans to require cove. it help passes for more public. this is including bars, restaurants, and long distance transport. while numerous trade unions including medical groupings are rallying members of the gates to move in, as you can see, lots of people out on a pretty high spirits. it seems earlier in the week people in the capital of a voicing durango. it wasn't quite a good back then a few days ago that was against the country's constitutional council ruling that
11:16 am
the government's moves were legal. let's find out a bit more about today's events for school life to correspondent peter all of the page that we saw some pictures just then live of the crowds. clearly see, know, social distance thing and not too many months that i could say which we read into that book. seems like people, they're in fairly good spirits. what's been happening? yeah, not a mosque in sight, really amongst the crowd. i've been with you've made their way through power as to where i am right now, right in the center, just me a to the big tourist destinations of notre dom cathedral next to the world famous hotel. the vill the order just went out shortly before i came on to talk to you to the police that were near by telling them to take off the the big raw yes. helmets and, and put on the soft kathy. so it certainly seems that they are preparing for any type of violence with the crowd who have reached their final destination here in paris, said was with them along the way for the march and following
11:17 am
a few incidences of pushing and shoving and at least one time where i saw a pet, the spray being used by the police. it's all being very peaceful. those incidents really came at those areas whereby the crowd to move in a direction at the police wanted them to go in the crowd, didn't want to go into that direction. and the police made sure that they went in the direction the police wanted them to go in. but the main reason these people have been out on the street here in paris as well as demonstrations in around 150 other french cities is that these people aren't happy with the proposals put forward by the government. and that being backed up by the constitutional counsel that it can be put into law, the people will have to show a coven health in order to enter things like balls restaurants, cafes, as well as go on long distance train journeys as well. what this cobra pass is, is basically a q r code that says whether you've been vaccinated, what you've been vaccinated with. it also logs and he coven tests that you've had
11:18 am
carried out. now it already was law that you have to show one of these to get into cultural sites like cinema museums and galleries, anywhere. but there would be more than 50 people now it's being expanded out, so it'll include much more locations on the health possible really be a part of people's life here in front. they would see those people not happy with it. it's worth pointing out. they are in the minority when it comes to the french population. over half of they surveyed said, actually they don't really mind the coven health class that they pretty much in favor of it. it is a pass that we're seeing more and more across european germany. there also, they have the coven health pops. they're looking to make it, perhaps more used in more locations in italy as well, from just friday. they've said that you're going to need that pastor and a whole load of different areas. so while these people particularly unhappy about it here in front, it does certainly seem like it's the way forward these demonstrations were the 4th
11:19 am
week of such gatherings in from the previous weeks that had been some violence between police and demonstrators stop having materialize this time around as the demonstration, the march here in paris is reached the final destination with life from those processed in paris on the correspondence. peter oliver, thank you. i think he's staying with the 7 off. he still to come over so an investigation into the conduct of new york, governor cuomo is approaching even his fellow democrats. the president bind in among them a calling for him to resign story after the brand i as we were saying in shipping, all of our jobs in factories to china was a bad idea. but the american people were okay with it, because although their wages were going down,
11:20 am
the stuff they were getting from china via mall mark was cheaper than ever. okay, now the chickens have come home to roost. now, the china labor sink is finished. inflations kicking in for real and wages are going up, but not as fast as inflation. rather driven by drainage shaped by those in the me. there's thing we dare to ask me.
11:21 am
oh, oh, good by. huge privacy concerns abound over apples plans to start scanning us. i phones for child abuse pitches. now this follows his pressure coming from success of american governments, demanding increase surveillance of encrypted data. additionally, new safety protection tools will warn children and parents when sexual explicit photographs are sent or received. a full automatically scan for child abuse related material even before is uploaded to the cloud storage service. and this case is all confirmed. the uses account will be deactivated. the national center for missing and exploited children will be notified whistleblower edward snowden. his way didn't on the issue condemning the tech, john's new policy. unbelievable apple now circulating a propaganda letter describing the internet white opposition to the decision to start checking the private files on every iphone against a secret government blacklist as the screeching voices of the minority. this has
11:22 am
become a scandal to say that we are disappointed by apples plans is an understatement. apples compromise on end to end encryption, may piece government agencies in the u. s. and broad. but is a shocking about face for uses, have relied on the company's leadership and privacy and security. we discuss this issue and this, why the ramifications without guests? 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 except i don't know what acceptable nudity is, but something that is innocent, something that is not in any way in the fairies 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 no already classified and sex abuse images and
11:23 am
which was like and that database and how those algorithms are used to search and computers this season such like apple has refused to open, effectively a 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 that apple is probably exploiting the subject of child exploitation in order to enroll something that it's filled. 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,
11:24 am
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 off, leave us alone stay. i don't want a fairs. 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, 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? will they going to look for. ready 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 defacto 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 in any event they will be sharing the information with other government
11:25 am
agencies. so, so then now becoming an agent of the state, the parents of a brain damage 2 year old toddler have lost their appeal at the european court of human rights. trying to stop a u. k. hospital withdrawing live support treatment for the little girl. the lowest spoke to us ne periods, we want to be in this position and they competed by their family as a community and they are keeping this parish office as best they can a but it is obviously a very tricky situation. her condition has been stable for 2 years now. we know that taking her by a transform will not be a detriment to her. what we have at the hospital will agree that little to can be transferred to, to israel and to
11:26 am
a hospital all for hi repeat. to a willing to look after her the parents of all to fix sla who are acidic jews say, withdrawing her life support goes against their religious faith. they want to take care of that to israel, all the us for assessment and possible treatment. you get hospital says that she has no chance of recovery and that such a journey would only bring her further pain. 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 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 successful. so it was one where
11:27 am
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 than actually getting into the minucci case an investigation into the conduct of new york governor andrew cuomo drawing to a close, he stands accused of sexual harassment and the mishandling of the covert crisis in nursing homes girl is being given in august. 3rd, he's deadline to provide any additional material for his defense after which the investigative committee will decide if he's to be impeached. so the democrats, even president by himself of court for his resignation, governor andrew cuomo, sexually harass multiple women, and in doing so violated federal and state law. i never touched any one inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances. most important thing right
11:28 am
now is. ready for the governor to resign, think you should read the people of new york, is there a better leadership in the governor's office? we continue to believe that the governor should resign. on tuesday, the new york state attorney general public details alleging quote, had committed assault against 11 women including cases of a wanted touching, kissing, and inappropriate comments. the actions are considered a violation of both state and federal law that is currently know criminal investigation plans. andrew cuomo denies all allegations. early this year the attorney general found the quote, administration had, quote, attempted to hide the coven mortality rate in nursing homes. thousands of deaths have been under reported, leading to a public outcry. but again, there's been no legal consequences for the governor to date. we discussed the issue with the daughter of a man who died in a nursing home at the height of the covert crisis. she's calling for lawmakers to
11:29 am
hold quote, responsible. 15000 people died. and everybody just cares about governor cuomo, due process. governor cuomo didn't afford my father and 15000 innocent people do processed when he signed their death warrants and sentenced them to death in nursing homes. governor cuomo shows a deprived indifference for life. it doesn't matter if it's a young girl that works in his office, or if it's an elderly person and we need to hold him accountable for all of his crimes. i put that out there to our lawmakers, to please mention over 15000 people who have no voice. somebody needs to stand up for them and be their voice. and i do believe we're going to see that in his is his impeachment trial. okay, that brings rather today for this news, i'll return with more laptops. there isn't 30 minutes.
11:30 am
the what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk the the the max ties, remember.
