[000:00:00;00] the it's our sub storage. oh, and i have the russian rhythmic gymnastics team claims as being an injustice off of the gold go to israel despite their athlete dropping the whole ribbon during the performance of jailed to expose abusive conditions of the prison that he's being held in. it denied telephone access to his lawyers, his wife brian, the move and active vengeance. your credit employer telling about that he can only what they have come in, or where she's not applying guidance. requirement to any of the

other in the pension continue to flare up in france. it's rocked by protest, tropes, 4 consecutive weeks. as we understand roughly a quarter of a 1000000 people across the country, hit the street and firmly opposed to the so called covey health. in which they need to get to many public places. also in the program for you here, when i see privacy activists take a bite out of apple over the tech giant's controversial plans to start scanning the files of users of a child born. we discussed the issue with a panel of analyst. how was going to be able to determine what is, is appropriate effectively creates a back door to, to up to, to apples devices. where are they going to draw a line? ah, well, it's great to have with us for this saturday evening program life from moscow right now,

just after 11 o'clock. welcome to your news. the tokyo olympics may soon be coming to an end. in fact, they will be this weekend, but there are still plenty of action that are making the headlines. for the 1st time since 1996, a russian athlete has been beaten to the gold in the rhythmic gymnastics. the highest award goes to israel, despite the athlete dropping her ribbon during her performance. we discussed the issue with a head coach of rushes, rhythmic gymnastics team. but do you share a fla, blatant mistake, a deliberate and just as that had been premeditated as syria. sarah committed bonus, railey acid in no way preventive 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 give them these kinds of refereeing, such as port may not exist in their limbic family, in the 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 about what's more historically watched and how about dominated this sport winning gold at the last 5 straight lympics but took her 2020 has stopped that rain a voucher and 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, enjoy ash. from during her ribbon routine, she dropped her ribbon. you can actually see and the video that although she keeps smiling like the performer that she absolutely, as she knows came down that this is

a fault that will most likely dash her chances out. talk gold medal. but no, 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 a baron who performed a total clean performance without a single mistake with 2nd place. and by the way, making us from the only gym, nothing the history of the olympic games to win a gold despite dropping a piece of her apparatus. and it's all of this combined, that's lead the r a c team to cry foul. can use the voice. of course you'd heard you. i'm glad they came 2nd, but it heard that it was unfair. it's not my 1st year in sports, and that's why you wouldn't get the 1st please. i hoped, and they believed until the very last, but the miracle didn't happen to be the 70 you to compare the 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 her routine 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 qualm, the review team has had about fantasy did earlier raised concerns about unfair scoring and previous performances to protest. how do facts being lodged both what rejected and of course, the wider atmosphere has to be taken into account here. the tokyo games have not been the easiest 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, but even and tearing, to compete, they've had fellow sportsmen make pretty politicized. jives about doping up despite the fact that r a c, it's all one of the most heavily tested contingent at tokyo, me in light of with this one has to hope the politics has not sealed a barrenness, elim pick 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 judges made the right cool. have we spoke with sports columnist allen. more about this. he says, there's been a train, you should a point scale system that might have perhaps tipped up the batman's back in 2000. and 16, what we have to understand is that the gymnastic, gymnastic organization, 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 rages largest moves you make, you get more points. now, money people would say that it has been reduced to kind of like a circus. it is like kind of surface, so labeled in your lympics. so the more difficulty you show, you perform, sorry say tricks, but it's like the moon that you make. you get more points. it does even with the object with dropped in suit or you know it's you means you could to get ahead of us

like clean the ones that you perform telling you to national we do continue with our special coverage of the story of martin got his failed he didn't us prison for hacking a hospital. he says he did that to draw attention to a custody battle between the hospital and the parents of a child being held without that consent. mister goddess failed, actually turned to us here at r t. after he was denied telephone access to his lawyers, me go to sales, wife says communication with his lawyer was cut off after he wrote an article that was published then on our website in the piece, he describes cases of mistreatment at the prison. he's in the authorities though, say his phone access was limited simply due to that covert policy will be disgusted with dana got his felt on the pirate brown a jonathan activist who was himself in prison in connection with a data leak. they read all of 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 ledger and other stuff in court, and they just can't reach him. they're telling him that they catherine sir, felt his 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 marty himself, over throughout the entire he was imprisonment, has been retaliated against 4 other articles. he's written or lawsuits. he has filed against the system. we're going to individual wardens and so forth. having done for years in 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 while over. i've been in prisons where, you know, i was, i was pulled off the phone. what the course of doing interview with the interview and put in the shoe for doing that interview and then release after investigation. 2 weeks later, i was re arrested on the field. these orders in 2017 for getting interview advice after i got out of prison. no one has been involved in activism should be tried in the us north gosh, where there is it just did that. the record of the us saw it on this is just a mentally vile. 7 years ago, martin got his elder hacked, the computers of the boston childrens hospital. he wanted to expose a month long custody battle between the hospital and the parents of 15 year old justina, paulette the a mother and father had been disputing her doc notice by the doctors who had changed from a red blood disorder to that of a mental condition but then that meant that the girl was forcibly separated from

her family. now justina was eventually reunited with her parents after what basically turn into a public outcry. but mr. got us failed, was arrested, and he's now serving a 10 year term and a well so cooled up communications management unit. now, these units were actually created as a part of the war on terror. they were dubbed by the media as little one ton of most, all communications with the outside world, restricted and monitored. while typical inmates include terrorists, those linked to piracy and even the mafia. i'm often called us health wise claims. his placement there is excessive and his treatment illegal. 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 used to get just adopted into another family. remember they took the custody away from his 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 a unit for terrorists. it makes no sense even a previous prison correctional officers and recognize that this is a political case. i think that's why he's in the cmu. we've contacted that both the judge on the adoption incentive, a comment. we've also lost our leading rights organizations both in america and worldwide for that. take the european court of human rights and human rights watch told us they can't comment. this report now filed biologies. daniel hawkins goss fells, wasn't in the 1st case, the hit headline suits, the computer fraud and abuse act came into force. i don't schwartz,

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 us to a news website that resulted in the crime of the headline being altered, 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. a membership is 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 voicing concerns about the treatment of inmates among those failings in the handling of code cases which have led to prison a death. he also accuses prison staff of punitive measures. blocking is 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 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 would say if

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 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 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 that he is absolutely and 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 quarter past the hour here at moscow, it's huge numbers in france. people have been out protesting for a 4th. we can straight, it's all hands plans to require these so called coven health passes. so you can be allowed to go into bars and restaurants and trains. and buses does estimated that some quarter of

a 1000000 people turned out for the nation wide protest. a numerous trade unions including medical groupings, have been rallying their members against the move earlier in the week. people in the french capital voice, their anger on the streets over the country's constitutional council ruling. the government moved legal. so we had a chance to gauge the move on the streets and pass the message just like this room today, we're not talking about deprivation of social right. when about an attempt on human rights, we're forced to vaccinate. this is real to tele. terry news. there's a button. the coven health has divided the french people into 2 categories, vaccinated and unvaccinated. for me, it's the beginning of the software dictatorship. it is the dictatorship that the pass. introduce. i'm not a mask 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 vin. the order just went out shortly before i came on to talk to you to the police. they were near by telling them to take off the, the big why your helmet and, and put on the soft peppy. 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 i was with them along the way for the march, and following a few incidences of pushing and shoving and at least one time where i saw a pepper spray being used by the police. it's all being very peaceful. those incidents really came at those areas whereby the crowd had 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 streets 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 french

governments. and that being backed up by the constitution or council that it can be put into law, the people will have to show a coven health path in order to enter things like balls, restaurants, cafes, as well as go on long distance train journeys as well. what this coded 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 covert tests that you've had carried out. now it already was the law that you have to show one of these to get into cultural sites like cinema museums and galleries. anyway, that 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 in front. it would seem 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 pass that they're pretty much in favor of it. it is

a path that we're seeing more and more across european germany. there also, they have the coven health paths 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 on the happy about it here in front, it does certainly seem like it's the way forward. these demonstrations were the 4th week of such gatherings in from the previous weeks that had been some violence between police and demonstrators that haven't materialized this time around. as the demonstration, the march here in paris is reached the final destination or to come here on the program on, on an investigation into the conduct of new york. governor cuomo is approaching even as fellow democrats, including the president. according for him to step down that story and off to the the,

the what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy for an taishan, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally i'm going to i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk the ah ah,

me the the news ah, your youth who are now to you. thanks for joining us. a huge privacy concerns abound of holes plans to start scanning us. i phones for child abuse, pictures. it follows ears or pressure from washington, demanding increase surveillance of encrypted data. additionally, new safety protection tools will warn children on their parents when the sexually explicit photos are sent or received. apple will automatically scan for child abuse related material even before it's uploaded to the i cloud storage service. now if case is all confirmed, the uses account will be deactivated and the national center for missing and

exploited children will be notified. though. meantime whistleblower edward snowden has weighed in on this issue. he's condemning the tech giant'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 i phone against a 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. apples compromise on end to end encryption, may piece 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. we discussed the issue and the wider ramifications with our 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 accept. i don't know what acceptable nudity is, but something that is innocence, 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 books i've seen, known already classified and joe sex abuse, images and which is like and that database and how those algorithms are used to search computers and such like apple is refused to open the fact 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 pets 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 off, leave us alone, stay out of 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 words,

so all the things or the images of all the things, where are they going to draw a line in this poll 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, but in any event they will be sharing the information with other government agencies. so. so then now becoming an agent of the state investigation into the conduct of a new york governor, andrew cuomo is drawing to a close to so sexual harassment. and the mishandling of the kobe crisis and nursing homes, equipment is being given an august the 13th deadline to provide any additional material in his defense staff, to which the investigative committee will decide if he has to be impeached. meantime, his fellow democrats, including the president, according for him to step down governor andrew cuomo, sexually harass multiple women,

and in doing so violated federal and state law. i never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances. most important thing right now is for the governor to resign. he should resign the people of new york deserve 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 that cuomo had committed assaults against 11 women, including cases of touching, kissing and comments. the actions are considered a violation of both state and federal law. that's currently no criminal investigation in the works. in the meantime, andrew cuomo denies all the allegations. earlier this year, the attorney general found the cuomo administration had, quote, attempted to hide the covert mortality rate in nursing homes. thousands of tests had been under reported, which of course led to a huge public outcry. but again, there's been no legal consequences to the governor to date. and we discussed the

issue with the daughter of a man who died in a nursing home with a height of the covert crisis. she was lawmakers to hold coloma to account if team fell, then people died. and everybody just cares about governor cuomo, due process. governor cuomo didn't afford my father and 15000 innocent people due process. 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 is, is his impeachment trial. the parents of

a brain damaged 2 year old toddler have lost their appeal to the european court of human rights, trying to stop on and u. k. hospital, i should say, withdrawing a life support treatment for the little girl. we spoke to that lawyer ne parents want to be in this position and they competed by their family, that community and they keep an experience office as best they can a bit. it is obviously 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 fixed who are acidic, jews say, withdrawing her life support goes against their religious faith. i want to take her either to israel or america for assessment and possible treatment that you can hospital says she has no chance of recovery and such a journey would only bring her further pain at the family's lawyer. again outline his thoughts about the judge's ruling. when you take the case to the european court, you're effectively 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 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 than actually getting into the many of the case. there's a broader discussion on that story right now. one line of r t dot com. what, thanks for sharing good time with us here at moscow, 11 30 pm saturday evening here in the russian capital. we're back soon at the top of the hour with more of your stories. the welcome to redact to deny this is a show are american in america covering american news are called foreign agents. by now you probably know that the eviction moratorium, which has been going on since the beginning of the pandemic expired last week. that meant that upwards of 15000000 people were at risk risk of eviction. ironically
