i had a low expectation to life. i accepted that accept the fact that i made that we had no fears. jell change pretty fast. 4 shots, different stories behind the bullets. with headlines for this, our live on our t international facebook stuff was one of its worked outages in its history. for 7 hours, millions of people were disconnected from the world's biggest of social network, along with instagram and walks up. even company engineers had their electronic passes, denied the shocking revelation in france as a prob, flags more than $10000.00 cases of child abuse in the catholic church, dating back to 70 years, an independent commission to will be releasing his findings a bit later today. and europe, energy crisis deepens with italy, bearing the brunt record gas prices have left many just unable to pay their bills.

jeremy, i really shocked. i am aware of what is going on and i have to say we are upset, an absolute shame the italian state. instead of protecting its citizens does exactly the opposite. it is raised the tariffs of goods such as electricity and gas . what a shame. ah . so lots of big stories for you here on today's program one out to you international. i'm rural ru sushi. i live in moscow, where's now just after 118. so 7 hours without facebook, what's up and instagram, and a $7000000000.00 personal hit for c o. mazacco bug, a facebook services anal back online after a global outage. and, and it's able to blow, edward snowden took the opportunity to imagine what life could be like without the social media giant. the internet joins go

a flight today and never return. what happens tomorrow? a golden age dawns or collapse, and we dine on rats. so edward snowden, yesterday tweed out whether or not this is if all the tech jain swing down at the same time, would it be a good day or a bad thing for society in surprising enough you overwhelming majority said that it would be a great thing for society, if the, the big tank giant were taken down personally, i kind of tend to agree i would like of the ability to organize. but i guess if we still have telegram, we do have the ability to organize. so, but it was interesting to see how many people viewed detect, jives going down as a positive dang versus a negative. twitter is picked up traffic significantly. some people were joking about saying, you know, if face to face, look down of twitter goes on next. and they'll be posting all their rage tweets in food pictures on tinder instead. and in other people, of course, that of tinder goes down along with all those other 3. well, they're not exactly sure what they're going to do with their lives because,

you know, given all the shut down and things like that, people's love life is already hanging by a thread and of tender facebook and twitter goes and i have no idea. i any one's going to founder, so me and so it's pretty hard situation, but hopefully it does get reconcile because, you know, beyond the social aspect of facebook and instagram, there is a business aspect and a lot of people's businesses are on these platforms and do communicate using these platforms and it will be pretty sad to see people lose a good marketing tool. you know, we do want to see facebook out accountable, but we do want them to be held accountable in the right way. not something that hurts a lot of people along all the guests and the allot analysts that we spoke to. we also discussed the role with john list and commented chadwick, moore. he questioned how such a vast company can be so vulnerable to just a technical glitch. facebook oh is a one trillion dollar company and i like these outages happen a lot. it happened in april in june of just this year. you don't see google outages or any of the big tech companies. apple happening quite so frequently. so it's a bit bizarre that facebook has

a problem with this. it seems to be that all of their, these properties oculus, instagram, whatsapp, and facebook all run through some sort of similar server. facebook is now sort of saying they were making upgrades and, and, and program or gotten locked out or something. sounds fishy sounds really strange. the fact that this in facebook, always a privacy problems and they always have problems there and they always go offline, it went down to one. so it's, it's very suspicious. and it's also suspicious that facebook seems that they are problems and most tech companies with these issues. and i would whistleblowers as well. i cannot get back. this has a look at the dangers of these monopolies if they can blink out of existence so quickly. hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue was lost in 6 hours today till these companies have it so much control, so much power. they are monopolies and look at how they can just wipe out revenue. whether the ship that was intentional or it was just the mistake, and i just have it out here in the program here 190. i discussed that brief taste

of a world without facebook and what's up with auntie correspondent, english, done off was quite and quite inexperienced now was in and it was like going in some version of a cyber and a co chamber if you like. and just, you know, completely, you know, muting out the rest of the, the rest of the world. yeah. it was, again, it was quite an experience. and in fact, it was one of the longest outages that facebook has experienced in its history. so yet it was long and there were long, tense hours because nobody seemed to know what caused the outage. how long it will last and well, we'll what we should all do with it. so well, it seems all seems back to normal now, but it wasn't easy because apparently when facebook service went down, they took along with themselves the so the infrastructure inside the, the, the facebook headquarters or wherever their services are located. so engineers, when they tried to get in, they found out that their electronic cards, their passes simply did not work. so they had to literally forced their way into

the server room to manually reboot them. so, and it took mark zuckerberg also hours to come forward and explain what was going on. facebook, instagram, whatsapp and messenger are coming back online now. sorry for the disruption today. i know how much you rely on our services to stay connected with the people you care about. so again, there were hours of radio silence before that statement. maybe because mark was trying to, well, put out a statement on facebook, not realizing it was down, but that's just my well guess. we'll eagle it 11 window closes perhaps another window opens any other services out there. taking advantage of this historic crash for facebook. well, short answer, yes, but it's not that simple because you might think that it was just facebook, instagram and you know, facebook sista companies essentially, but no, a lot of other companies, a lot of other businesses that do not necessarily rely on facebook as a social platform but rely rather on their technical physical infrastructure like service. they all went down to from well tended to netflix to zoom,

to literally websites of airline companies and well, bank apps as well. so a lot of the lots of sites, a lot of services that were used to using they, well they went off line. but one apps seem to take advantage over it and mainly to take advantage of whatsapp not work. and that's the telegram messenger. they estimate their social media team even had their fun on twitter before twitter went down as well. and well, they try to attract new uses and i did well, they successfully did. so because it is estimated some 50000000 new uses join telegram and it almost went down as well, but not because of the facebook thing, but because you had to process so many new accounts being registered. so yeah, and there were a few funny reactions on line to this whole may hm. unfolding have a look. we're working to get things back to normal. telegram you single come over,

the servers are up and my parents aren't home. so yeah, being a little tongue in cheek, the s m m team, they're by probably well capitalizing on the whole situation. but in general, this whole thing, it underlines especially the fact that other businesses not, not well. a pankey linked which didn't appear to billing to facebook, that they experience troubles. it really points out how much people on the gerald massive massive companies rely on the infrastructure of one particular tech giant. millions of businesses rely on facebook now and many other, many others use, say, spoke in order to, to connect to other apps. it sends a huge warning across the bile because here we have a major social network site. but you know, this shows us the extent to which we rely on digital technology across the board. and cyber attacks of sorts can bring down whole systems. and facebook is just one.

it's a social networking platform, but a lot of businesses as we've said, relying on it. but imagine a much more in trend sick infrastructural attack. i'm not saying this was a, a cyber attack. in fact, i have a theory about what happened. but ah, this shows you the fragility of the entire digital infrastructure that we're relying on. facebook insists the service offish did not lead to any use, a data being compromised. but it's an additional setback, just weeks after a form of product manager claimed facebook knowingly allows uses to spread a hate and misinformation our guests gave us that he is on the story. what's interesting about the leak documents of the wall street journal published is that they show quite clearly that facebook is in decline and knows it's in decline. and so you see all these desperate measures of attempting to attract pre teens and children. i mean even children. so there is a kind of convergence of several bad instances. i mean, not just to shut down,

but to any trust effort to break it up, coupled with now what these lead documents show is and understanding by facebook officials, that crest of the wave is now headed downwards. that facebook is not infallible. and what's up is definitely not infallible. what's that also came under scrutiny because there were reports that even though they claim that the user messages were encrypted, that they were actually sending some user data to authorities in order to help with different types of prosecution. so if there's a message to take away from this, i think it is absolutely that we should be very skeptical. the claims that facebook whatsapp, if you all the subsidiaries are making about their ability to keep your, your data private. because clearly it seems like they can't, at least for the moment, i keep their sites even online and post the out here in moscow, natural gas prices are still edging up in europe, off the hitting an all time record. italy is one of the worst affected as it relies

on gas for more than 2 thirds of all of its energy needs. people therapy and hit by soaring bills and the general fear. this is just the beginning. are determined. i am really shocked. i am aware of what is going on, and i have to say we are upset, an absolute shame that the italian state, instead of protecting its citizens, does exactly the opposite. instead of saving the citizens already condemned by the coven in the pandemic. despite this general economic crisis, it has recent electricity, gas, and petrol is 40 percent. i would say it is too much. many people have lost their jobs. many people have been penalized by the pandemic will have great difficulties . it will not be easy. what a drama about the future i see is quite bleak, negative. i would say that if things do not improve, there is a real risk of a social revolt. people are tired if they can't even pay these bills, things will get worse and worse, their basic goods. you can't pay for gas or electricity that much. i fear that very

bad things could happen. people could become violent. italy's government has warned that electricity bills could rise 40 percent over the next 3 months. if i minister has announced 3000000000 euros of subsidies to keep gas and power bills down this winter. however, experts warn in won't be enough. and many citizens want a more drastic state of intervention. a go out of it. i bet you what i mean. the government should increase subsidies for the people. it should help people who have no money. it should make a policy not to raise these rates, but i know it's too late. now. this was very difficult situation, where we only have one salary and we will have to make many financial sacrifices. it will not be easy. we are very worried. we will have to give up little things to maybe we did before, like going out for dinner, some holidays and some gifts we'll have to given up to pay for these increases. it's not fair, but unfortunately we can't do anything else. a lot running probe and france has uncovered at least 10000 cases of child abuse at the hands of catholic clergyman,

later today or commission will be releasing his findings, dating back 7 decades. investigating the story from paris ortiz shot of dupont ski . the lid all that decades of abuse by the catholic church in france is about to be blown wide open following scandals in other countries, an independent commission was set up pare it spent 2 and a half years investigating the clergy hotline opened in 2019 and it received more than 6500 calls from those who were victims of abuse or witnesses to it. the scale is horrific. noon

noon from 1950 to 1970. the church is completely indifferent to the victims. they don't exist, the suffering inflicted on children is ignored. mm. while the full details of the report won't be released until late on tuesday, it's expected to seriously sent shock waves through the vatican. it will have the effect of a bomb. this report will show the collective responsibility of the church. we will finally have figures on the scale of the abuse collected scientifically. we have been waiting for this for years. some french priests have already been tried for abusing children, including bernard prey now. now $76.00, he was found guilty last year of abusing boy scouts. his victims were aged between 7 and 14 accusations that go back to 1991. but the church allowed pri not to

continue teaching children for his crimes. he was sentenced to 5 years in jail. the head of the independent commission says de of 22 cases have been reported to the police. 40 of the cases have been flagged up to the church where some alleged offenders are still employed. however, for the majority of victims, that may be no redress. 9 out of 10 people cannot get justice because the statute of limitations has passed or the perpetrator has died. financial compensation has been suggested as an option by the french catholic church, but the victims i, me, amount of money will never be able to repair the damage that they suffered at the hands of peter files often protected and hidden by the church itself shall lity bronski r t,

paris. the french catholic church is not directly commented on this upcoming report . however, it did post a prayer on twitter, on behalf of its victim. now in the wake of bricks, it some in poland, a wondering whether they should follow the you case example and head for the door. a warsaw is currently locked in a series of disputes with the european union. as peter oliver now reports, politicians from the ruling law and justice party in poland, talking about the country's future in sight, the european union. some even suggesting the potential of a pox. it time for an honest assessment, whether the british path is better for poland. poland thought the german occupies in the 2nd world war it fought the soviets occupiers. we will also fight the brussels occupies with warsaw and brussels bumping heads over rule of law in poland . the polish constitutional court may well be set this week to rule that it's

domestic law, supersedes that of the european union. the problem for the firebrands and polish prime minister mateusz moreover skis party is that while saber rattling about the country's willingness to remain in the e. you may send out the message they want. it doesn't strike a popular court with the polish people. almost 90 percent of those polled. busy said that they are in favor of you. membership supports risen steadily over the last 18 years. poland has the lowest levels of unemployment in the e u. it's the 3rd most attractive member state for outside investment and inside the block it's an important supplier to others. here's what people have to tell are see, it's better if we stay in the european union. bond is one of the most subsidized countries in the u. sold by making our contribution to the ear budget and what we can get out of it, as well as receiving funding for various projects. this is a better option for us. we gain more than we lose if the european leave prices for

european integration and a creation of a united states of europe. we should think carefully about that because the policy of some french, german governments, but also the european commission towards poland is harmful to us and causes losses for us. we must be ready to implement our own bald exit plan. if such a departure would be necessary for us, nobody wants to leave the european union. if someone says they want to leave the you, they probably lost their mind. a lot has changed. our country looks different thanks to the you. but this union should love us to currently it's been keeping us on the side. it's a bit to stay small opposition. activists don't think there's any real plan to take poland out of the you says orange as the spices will hit the wall if it keeps escalating the dispute with the you. as soon as money's involved ideology takes a backseat and there's plenty of e. u money already involved. warsaw is the largest beneficiary of the u. cohesion fund,

and it's set to receive 75000000000 euro over the next 6 years. add to that tens of billions in subsidies and cheap loans and the idea of warsaw quitting the u. club looks less and less likely, all of that is at risk. if poland continues to fight the european union on the rule of law case, warsaw hasn't received its covered aid money yet. while some other member states are already spending. there's not may be why the prime minister is putting himself over in a far more diplomatic fashion than some of his m p's on this issue. i think we will be able to clear all doubts without create an unnecessary tash and here, of course, there is no talk of pol exit while. glancing over to the united kingdom, the only country to leave the e. u club may provide more of a cautionary tale and been careful what you wish for than any shining example of sunlit uplands. upon leaving the european union, peter oliver

r. t. berlin. until the come in the program here on our t afghan left on is sinking into poverty after the taliban takeover and us withdrawal and horrific practices emerging of families, selling that children over you report another story in just a moment here on our t internet. ah ah ah ah ah

ah, so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race. is an offense, very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very difficult time, time to sit down and talk oh, it is good to have you with us today. now political gestures have become a rather familiar sight of sporting events in america, athletes taking the knee or just refusing to sing the national anthem. but now

there's a new trend emerging. was fans chanting obscenity against the increasingly unpopular u. s. president? oh, ah. so the challenge went viral after appearing during an nbc broadcast of a nascar race in alabama. an embassy reporter who was interviewing dr of brandon brown said the chand actually sounded like let's go brandon, alaska, share the video and then all of a sudden deleted it. but that was certainly enough to trigger a barrage of jobs on twitter. this sounds literally nothing like let's go brandon. can't wait for the see. and in fact, checks to tell us that the crowd was in fact saying, let's go brandon jonas, have a difficult job to keep licking them some biden as put that channel buses. well,

we spoke with george the mulay from the a global policy institute in london. he gave us his perspective on joe biden and why he's become a figure of ridicule for so many americans. american people like that presidents to have a certain swagger a so for sure, i'm so by just doesn't inspire that. so i think that's one aspect of it with sports fans, you know, young people, they cannot relate to a kind of a dog ring. ok, man, you know, with some reality his policies are on pocket. i think the, the afghan debacle is unpopular. i think people are getting very concerned about all the signs of inflation in the economy. i think the of the border. busy which is completely out of control is very popular. well,

let's get some other stories making headlines all around the world. in brief, we'll start with the unrest in bolivia. oh right, it's all continuing in the capital law. pass off to this is the, what about the prop used to make cocaine a police you tick asked to dispose. coca follows who responded by throwing stones around this town. several arrests were made. a farmers have been protesting for months over what they see is a government monopoly on growing the crop, which is legal, but heavily restrictive. have a look at these pictures right here, a major volcanic eruption now it which 3rd week in la, paloma this is in spain's canary islands. authorities are closely monitoring the area off the part of the volcanic crater collapsed to that on least a cascade of fast moving lava. that was a one point more than a 1000 meters wide. a so far as we understand, a 1000 buildings have been destroyed. and a new york, hundreds of teachers have protested against compulsory vaccines. that's off the

staff would put on paid leave for fading to receive best shots. protestors held up banners denouncing what they called corrosion. ah, well i've got of stones buying stuff, almost run out of cash and people are running out of food. it's all taken place less than 2 months after the taliban take over. but foreign aid supply is also hard to come by. with western donors reluctant to deal with the new government. and as we understand aid groups, a warning, a major humanitarian crisis. and i know this is not easy, but that needs to be some solution to the financial flows into afghanistan to ensure that at least salaries can be paid and that essential supplies, power, unable to being 2 of them can be procured. the absence of that will seriously exacerbate vulnerability for ordinary afghans. a less severe hardship in

afghanistan has prompted some people to take desperate measures. at our tea here we spoke to a man who tried to sell his kids in order to feed his other kids. here's the story . they go up to cambridge anxious, who just had a good business and a happy life with whom do smaller, but then the war began. we migrated here, my savings were exhausted, formula late and some people got some aid here. but the others did not, my pockets are empty now and i have no option left but to sell some of my kids and to fight for the survival of my other kids with the money i get that way when we get into the human facial. when your stomach is empty, you can't think about the dark side sellers of energy. i'm forced to sell a few of my kids to feed others. there's no option left for the previous government did not help me, but i hope this new one will support me. i'm not asking for support for myself alone, but for all these people living here like they are all from my tribe, but in michigan, all of us refugees here are one families. i asked for financial help for every one

good as you follow, trump is calling for 2 newspapers to be stripped of that pulitzer prizes for their reporting on russia. gate is actually a written to the prize board denouncing the new york times. and the washington post for falsely accusing him of colluding with moscow as has been widely publicized, the coverage was no more than a politically motivated fos, which attempted to spin a false narrative that my campaign supposedly colluded with russia. despite a complete lack of evidence underpinning this allegation, i would expect that you will take the necessary steps to rectify the situation, including stripping the recipients of their prize and retracting the false statements which remain on the pool. it's a website. the 2 papers where jointly awarded the prestigious prize in 2018 for almost 2 dozen articles linking trumps 2016 election campaign to russia. but a year later investigation led by special prosecutor robert muller concluded there was insufficient evidence to prosecute the president. the special councils

investigation did not find that the trump campaign or any one associated with it, conspired or coordinated with russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 u. s. presidential election. thomas renewed attack on the liberal newspapers comes weeks after a damning revelation against the democrats and the russia. good case. last month, the former clinton campaign lawyer was indicted on charges of lying to the f. b i. when talking about alleged links between russia, trump, and that moscow and washington, and we discussed this with legal analyst at jennifer, the master. well, it surprised you what it was their own entity, so they could vote these awards. they can issue a statement, retracting their formal statements or former statements. it could accurately state that their prior award was based on what's clearly now been reported by actual legal sources as misinformation. so they could do all of these things, but the question is, will they do it?

the problem is in new york times and washington post, i become propaganda outlets of either the democratic party or whatever. now peace or narrative, their board, their owners not only people stop researching for themselves, but a lot of times they'll just read headlines even if the article might have clarified information, they'll just read a damaging headline. and so that's where it becomes dangerous. no rush a lie, but the mainstream media did not report on it when all of their anonymous sources and fabrications were found out. or there's a sampling of some of your top stores for this. how i had live from moscow on auto international. thank you for sharing with time with us here we are back soon with ah ah

ah ah ah, green water and we go through the streets that i will, they are so dam, make them feel that they are fellow human beings. people in the communities yet fund them.
