patient a life i sent a death, i accept the fact that i made that one. we had no fears, general change pre fashion, 4 shots, different stories behind the bullets with facebook. so 1st wall of a, it's worse than ever. all it is for 7 hours, millions of people were disconnected from the world's biggest social network, as well as instagram and what's up and even company engineers out there, electrolyte passes, denied systemic abuse and cruel indifference. thus the dumbing conclusion of a probe into the french catholic church, which claims over $300000.00 cases of child sex abuse. during the last 70 years. the law, europe's energy crisis deepens with italy, bearing the brunt record gas prices of left many unable to pay the bills. would

you tell me if i am really shocked? i'm aware of what is going on. and i have to say we are upset, an absolute shame, the italian state, instead of protecting it citizens does exactly the opposite. it has raised the tariffs of goods such as electricity and gas, what a shame and history in the making a russian crew hands to the international space station to shoot the 1st ever feature lent movie in or ah, wherever you're counting the program from today. welcome to moscow on to the news, our on our t this ours top story. 7 hours with our facebook. what's up on instagram and a $7000000000.00 personal hit? for ceo mark zucker berg, face books, services are not back online. after a global i teach, and

n s a whistleblower edward snowden took the opportunity to imagine just what life would be like without the social media giant. the intern joins go a fine today and never return. what happens tomorrow? a golden age don's or collapse and we dine on rats. so edward snowden, yesterday tweed out whether or not this, if all the tech giant swim down at the same time, would it be a good thing 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, the big tank giles were taken down permanently, i kind of tend to agree i would like 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. twitters picked up traffic significantly. some people were joking about saying us if face to face 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 gonna 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 girls and i have no idea. i any one's going to find her soulmate. and so it's pretty hard situation, but hopefully it does gain 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. well, we also spoke with journalists and commentators chadwick, murray. he questions how such a vast company can be so vulnerable to 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 other big tech companies. apple. busy 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 basically 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 sound really strange. the fact that this in facebook, always the privacy problems and they always have problems there and they always go offline, it went down to one. so it's very suspicious. and it's also suspicious that facebook seems to have bigger problems than most tech companies with these issues. and i would whistle blowers as well, could be acknowledging 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 shut that was intentional or it was just a mistake or the,

or my colleagues re shay and eager. she's on off discuss that brief taste of a world with on facebook. was quite a, quite an experience 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 engine is when

they tried to get in, they found out that they have electronic cards, their passes simply did not work. so they had to literally forced their way into the server room to manually rebuild them. so, and it took mark zuckerberg also hours to come forward and explain what was going on. facebook, instagram, whatsapp, a messenger 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 wild guess. we'll eagle 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 sister 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 of it and mainly to take advantage of whatsapp not work. and that's the telegram messenger. the s m m, their social media team even had their fun on twitter before twitter went down as well. and while they tried to attract new uses, and 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're single, come over the servers are up and the parents aren't home. so yes, being a little tongue in cheek, the s m. m team there by probably, well capitalizing on the whole situation. but in general, this whole thing, it underlines, especially with the fact that oven business has not, not, well a fountain linked which didn't appear to billing to facebook, that they experienced troubles. it really points out how much people and in general, 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 are who said relying on it. but imagine a much more intrinsic infrastructural, so 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 for its part insist, the service i did did not lead to any user days, have been compromised. but it is just another setback, weeks after a former product monitor claim. facebook knowingly allows users to spread hate, and misinformation, or guest gave us their views on history. but 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 preteens 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 league 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 app is definitely not infallible. what's app also came under scrutiny because there were reports that even though they claim that 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 was absolutely that we should be very skeptical of the claims that facebook whatsapp, your, 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. in other story to bring you to a natural gas prices are still edging up in europe after hitting an all time record

. italy is one of the worst effected with gas accounting for more than half of the countries residential energy consumption. people have been hit by storing bills on fear. it's just the beginning. oh, determined i am really shocked. i'm 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. instead of saving the citizens already condemned by the coven and the pandemic. despite this general economic crisis, it has raised the tariffs of goods such as electricity and gas. what a shame, the increase in 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 from them yet pretty eye opening figures here at least. government has warned that electricity bill as could rise by 40 percent over the next 3 months alone on the prime minister as an inch. 3000000000 euro worth of subsidies to keep gas and electricity bills done this winter. whoever experts warn it won't be enough, and many citizens want to more drastic intervention. a go out what i busy, what i mean, the government should increase subsidies for the people. i mean, it should help people who has no money over that it should make a policy not to raise these rates, but i know it's too late. now this was the very difficult situation where we only have one salary and we will have to make many financial sacrifices or it will not be easy. we are very worried. we will have to give up little things that maybe we did before, like going out for dinner and some holidays and some gifts. we'll have to give it

up to pay for these increases. it's not fair, but unfortunately we can't do anything else on a rocket launch. unlike any other i, russian crew are hoping to shoot the 1st ever feature length film in space, and they'll be talking at the i assess any moment. now, let's get the low down from donal quarter. and all this done certainly appears to be a case of reaching for the stars here. tell us more while unit it was earlier on to early on tuesday that the m. s. the cy, use m. s. 19 launched from the bike and or cosmo jerome and kaz exten embarking on its flight to the international space station. now you could see on your screen now that's the rocket there, a launching into space. everything went smoothly according to plan. and for those who are the actually, there must have been a really beautiful sight to see something you definitely don't see every day. but there is something unique about this space flight in particular. that's that. the russian film director clim chapin co and russian actress eula paras, sealed,

are actually taking a tagging along for this. they're going to spend 12 days on the i ss to plant a film scenes for a fictional space drama movie. that's going to be called the challenge and they're actually going to be the 1st professional filmmakers to film a movie in space. in these scenes, paris hill, this going to play a surgeon that was sent to the i assess to save the life of a cosmo. not and several cosmonaut that are actually already on the i assess, are going to be playing rules in this film, one of which is all like a new kit and novit sky, who actually sent his greetings over twitter after watching the 2 blast off into space towards the i ss now, this movie is even set to make history as the 1st feature film to be found in space . actually, the russian team has been locked in a literal space race to accomplish this with the american actor, tom cruz and the director, doug lehman. so definitely interesting news coming out of biking or yeah,

incredible stuff. we will follow it with some interest on quarter til 3 on thanks dawn. now in the wake of briggs, it summon poland are wondering whether they should follow the you case example and head for the exit. warsaw is currently locked in a series of disputes with the european union under senior correspondent, peter oliver pixel. this story, politicians from the ruling law and justice party in poland are talking about the country's future inside the european union. some even suggesting the potential of a polk set time for an honest assessment, whether the british path is better for poland, poland, for the german occupies in the 2nd world war. it fought the soviet 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 savor, ruffling 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 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 e. u. so 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 you have been in these

presses for european integration and a creation of a united states of europe, we should think carefully about that because the policy of some french or german governments. but also the european commission to was poland, his harmful to us and cause his losses for us. we must be ready to implement our own pulled 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 distasteful opposition. activists don't think there's any real plan to take poland out of the you. so in just a spiteful hit the wall if it keeps escalating the dispute with the e. u. as soon as money is involved a dollars, it takes a backseat and there's plenty of you 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. that 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. busy 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. hundredths of thousands of children have been abused by catholic clergymen in france since the 1950s. that is the claim of a report just released by an independent commission and described a culture of, quote, cruel indifference within the church to what was a systemic problem. charlotte davinsky reports from pars this report rocking the foundations of the catholic church here in france. this is just the latest scandal to hit the church world wide, but showing the decks of depravity of those who were in positions of authority and positions of trust. let's have a look at some of the main points now in that report some 3000 p to files uncovered, acting within the french church since 1950. and that is said to be a minimum estimate, some $330000.00 children who are abused by those who are affiliated with the

church includes priests and the clergy. 80 percent of the victims were boys between the ages of 10 to 13, the head of the commission of that independent report said that the church was to blame for not doing enough sheesh good debbie. these until the to thousands. there was a profound and even grew and difference to was the victims they were not believed, not heard. the church did not know how to see or hear. they did not pick up on signals or take the rigorous measures which were necessary. the institutions responsibility has to be recognized and show murray so of a wound that the problems had not yet being overcome each fulsheti thought deal. we must get rid of the idea that sexual violence in the catholic church has been completely eradicated. that the problem is behind us. the problem remains. so this report outlines 45 recommendations. this includes listening to victims and also

a psychological assessment report of those who wish to join the church in the feature as well as looking at the governance of the church itself. as that, the porter being released, some of the heads of victims associations is quite out. they would be linked to the wrong fit. i know you've been through hell who have explored the darkest and most object state. the man sometimes creates and mind the president of the conference of bishop. so france reacted to that report. in the moments after it was revealed, he said the time from beginning to the time for naivety was over and he described the report as being overwhelming. he asked for forgiveness for the church, for what had happened to these hundreds of thousands of children on social media. there has been angry reaction to that report with many saying that the time had come for reckoning within the church. this organization, the catholic church must be dissolved and that no other association company

structure would not be dissolved, dismantled after such crimes, 330000 victims in churches. they should be dissolved chemical castration for all priests to take vows of chastity. and we're at yet to hear how the vatican will respond to this. that has been a long list of scandals involving the catholic church now for the last 20 odd years or more. we've had scandals in places like australia in australia, in the us, in germany and now here in problems. but no matter how many times we get reports that are exposing what happened for decades. what was known by senior members of the church when you see the sheer scale of what happened to people, the numbers and how they were abused. people are still extremely shocked. more world news coming your way in 90 seconds. stay with us.

join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking the guess will the world of politics, sport business i'm show business. i'll see you then. oh, is your media reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation, whole community, are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith?

in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah, ah. hello again. the british government is preparing to funnel billions of pounds into a new cyber, a war for center capable of attacking states that the u. k. c's is hostile for more in this less cross live now to r t, shall the edwards dash to good to see you shall hear. big numbers involved here it take us through the plans. well, it's thing described as a once in a generation opportunity and a real game changer and placing britain on the map as being a global influenza and real game changer in the cybersecurity and technology.

such a huge priority than for at the government that it set aside a whopping $5000000000.00 pounds towards this achievement. to build a new digital digital wall for h k. with the capabilities of launching and offensive at cyber attacks against so called hostile states. and the defense equity says it's only right that the u. k is better equipped to defend itself. some foreign states are waging cyber warfare not every single day. and we have a right on to international law and among ourselves to defend ourselves. and one of the ways you can do that is to dismantle the tools that i used against you. for example, with the hostile state is using a server to deploy ransomware against you spyware. using disinformation, you could use offensive side, but to deal with those servers. well, the united kingdom is yet to suffer what is called a tear won or catastrophic cyber attack against it. but that does hamp defense.

secretary really wants to play up the fact that it would be a dereliction of duty if the government was not in a position to strike back on the same scale. now there is interesting timing in all of this as well as this latest announcement comes as the conservative party are hosting at that tory party conference. and right of the crux of it are the conservative manifesto pledges. for instance, at the u. k. is really trying to position itself in this post breaks at britain on an international scale and has long described itself as a global britain. and all of this cybersecurity really plays into that very much aligns with that mission, which others in government singing from their say same him sheet. the national cyber force will help confront aggressive behavior from malign actors and demonstrate that britain is investing in next generation defense capability. to protect help people and help our friends count as cyber threats. so just who all

these so called hostile states that the u. k is trying to make aware of a makes gad of, in fact, they're talking about states like russia and china, or of course. and it seems like the u. k. really wants to try and wave some sort of cybersecurity war with these so called hostile states. under the guise of the best form of defense is attack. jody, thanks very much. progressed through the authority show the address does she lie from the british capital. political gestures have become a familiar site and sporting events today with athletes taking the knee and also in the u. s. refusing to sing the national anthem, but now there's a new trend emerging with funds jumping obscenities against the nation's increasingly unpopular president. ah, ah, ah,

the chance went viral after appearing during an n b. c broadcast of a nascar race in alabama and nbc reporter who was interviewing driver, brandon braun tried to limit the damage by suggesting the crowd were actually saying, let's go. brandon. nascar shared the video then deleted it without explanation, triggering a barrage of jibes on twitter. this sounds literally nothing like love gold. brandon, can't wait for the sea and in fact, checks to tell us that the crowd was in fact saying, let's go. brandon journos have a difficult job to keep licking dems, and biden as per that channel bosses we spoke with george. similarly from the 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 citizens american people like read presidents to have a certain swagger a. so for sure, i'm so i can just doesn't inspire that. so i mean,

that's one aspect of it that we're talking about. sports fans, you know, young people, they cannot relate to it a kind of a dog ring, a facility. 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 border. busy which is completely out of control is very unpopular, but the voice, a recap of what was a quite extraordinary 12 months ahead of the last u. s. presidential election or short doc, my america gets going in moments a. ready a

when the sa crossing firm in this area and the desert, this is where the muslim thing pathology is happened. and it's different reason as the heat or the cold, like it's very cold at night and it's very hot that the day nobody can carry enough water to. so by that.
