7:11 am
them, how in the old days, they stretcher. this doesn't seem out of step with comments like that, someone being sucker-punched. but what we also saw in the debate, challengers didn't want to touch this which was a sign they don't want to do anything to offend trump voters. night. it was a gentler and simpler kind of debate. who do you think it helped and who do you think hadit hurt? >> a boxing match was interrupted by a presidential debate. you've had the indication john kasich and ted cruz didn't want to get in the fight. marco rubio has been taking it to donald trump and this is a way in which donald trump really sets the tone as he has in so many other ways in the republican debate. he was on his best behavior talking about unity and saying we are all in this together. marco rubio said explicitly and recognized his attacks on donald
7:12 am
on him. so everybody had their own reasons for behaving themselves. >> as far as trump goes, though, john, i mean, is this him just sort of letting the clock run out, so to speak? >> i think that is part of it. but also part of it is that he wants to kind of tamp down this talk from other parts of the republican party that he is a threat to the republican party. he wants to show that he can be a unifier. also, if you read his book "the art of the deal," and listen to him talk about deal making, he talk about a period of bluster and bragging and then at the end bringing everybody together so this is part of the trump playbook. >> how much ground did marco rubio have to make up in florida? >> polls shows he has made up a little ground but still down by close to ten points. he still has got some work to do. >> thanks, john. john will talk with john kasich on "face the nation" this sunday on cbs.

science could help prove patriots quarterback tom brady's innocence in the deflategate scandal. as we told you yesterday, the evidence comes from an unlikely source. a seventh grader outside boston. he says the nfl could have avoided controversy if it had done an experiment just like he did. anna werner spoke with the young man about his science fair project and she is at gillette stadium in foxborough stadium with more on this. >> reporter: good morning. who says kids aren't learning anything in school these days? this 12-year-old says his science class inspired him to wade into the deflategate controversy, to disprove the allegations coming from the nfl commissioner. and just wait until you hear

7:45 am
>> the lowest recorded psi during deflategait was 2 psi so that means the weather conditions could have affected the footballs during deflategate. >> reporter: could he figure out something the nfl did not? >> i'm not a patriots fan. i'm a philadelphia eagles fan. >> reporter: he is an mit professor and he reviewed ben's paper. was he right? >> i think he was right. >> reporter: to prove it, leonard took us to the chalkboard. >> the extra temperature you need to add on to fahrenheit to make it relative to absolute zero. >> reporter: translation? he says no one needed to deflate knows footballs on gameday and basic scientific equation shows when you put a football outside in cold temperatures, the ball will deflate a bit all by itself. >> basic law of physics. doesn't matter who you root for,
7:46 am
as a result, ben goodell's science fair project is getting him some attention at school and local media but no reaction from the patriots yet. so if you could say anything to tom brady right now, what would you say? >> i want to meet him. >> reporter: so we reached out to brady and the nfl. no response from brady's camp. the nfl told us overnight, no comment. but professor leonard said he would like ben goodell to visit mit. he thinks this other goodell could have a bright future as a scientist someday. >> we love this story! number one, i love that the little guy's name is goodell! >> yep. >> you know tom brady, charlie. you should send that piece to him. shouldn't he get a jersey or a meeting? tom would want that. >> doesn't it explain why he threw out his cell phone? >> no. >> that still lingers. you're talking to a new york fan, that's why!

8:04 am
hopefully got to see i knee on these issues what i would do as president and i don't think donald trump did that. in florida we have real good momentum here now. i think a growing realization in florida among ted cruz and john kasich they can't win in florida. kasich and cruz are barely campaigning here to a vote for them is a vote for donald trump. i think as more voters decide that, you'll see people coming our way down the stretch. >> back to charlie's point. the tone was so decidedly different last night. you made a point of saying, you know, your children were disappointed. no man ever wants to do that to his family. what did they say to you that made you say that won't happen to me again? different last night. >> i think along the line that the personal things that were said the back and forth on the insults. obviously, donald has been insulting people for a year. when we chose to respond in kind, i don't think -- i know that my wife and children didn't

8:06 am
for him and you can't win unless the party is united. that is fact and we have to deal with it. >> the party will not be behind donald trump? >> you never say never. i just don't see it. a significant number of republicans and polling shows it. i'm telling you out there there ask a significant number of people won't vote and just tune out and if that happens, we can't win. we can't win if we are not united and i believe if donald trump is the nominee, it will fracture our party and put us in a position that makes it very difficult to win in november. >> senator rubio, thank you so much for joining us this morning. >> thank you. embattled ceo of yahoo! marissa mayer hopes to be with the company this year. she made headlines when she left google in 2012 to head yahoo! and made her one of the most prominent women in silicon valley and expectations were

than a year. americans are concerned about their digital privacy. 91% of adults say consumers have lost control of their personal data online. a new proposal from the federal communication commission could change all of that. it would require internet providers to get their customers explicit permission to share certain information. right now, those providers contract how long you spend on specific websites and the location of the mobile users. companies like verizon and at&t say their proposal creates uneven playing field with the website that tracks the users. tom wheeler is here, the ftc chairman, because he wants to change that. how does it work now and what would your proposal do exactly? >> when with you go online, the network that takes you to the international knows everything about you. they know what sites you're visiting, they know what kind of e-mails you're getting and they know your health information and your financial information. they can paint an entire picture of you. then they turn around and sell that information.
8:35 am
>> without you knowing it. all we are saying is, wait a minute, it's my information! i ought to have control over whether it gets used or not. >> they have been doing it for a while. why now? why crack down now? >> because why not now, i think, is the threshold here, that we have become so accustomed to the internet, that we need to make sure that we are the ones who are in control of the internet, not those who run the internet. information. there's no difficulty if the companies want to go ahead and do something with it, with that information, that's fine. but they ought to get my permission to do it. it's a really simple concept. >> your rules would change what? >> so what the rules would require, charlie, is that before a network could use the information they collect on me,
8:36 am
can use that information. it's that simple. this is a simple question of putting the consumer in control of the information that they own. >> this is one of the arguments that tim cook uses in the encryption debate. look. other people have information and access to it and they trade in this information, whereas, we don't do that. we simply sell phones. >> i think that is another debate that is going on. what we are just trying to say is that in a world in which the people who take you to the internet know everything that you do on the internet, are you going to be able to control your own private information? you know, charlie, we have, for years, had rules about what happens when you use the phone network. okay? your information, where you go on your phone network is protected by our rules at the fcc.
8:37 am
kind of protection when you use the internet? >> is this a case where public policy isn't keeping up with technology, do you think? >> well, i think there is a challenge that we all face right now which is how does public policy keep up with technology. and how does public policy make sure that it doesn't interfere with technology cal growth, which is why we are not going in with heavy hand at regulations so say thou shall. >> there needs to be a debate in this country between privacy and security and that debate ought to take place even within the congress and part of that encryption debate. you seem to be saying we need to have consideration for the privacy at our civil rights and might be the civil right of this century? some have said that. >> it's my information. how it gets used ought to be in my control. and the technology takes it out
8:38 am
all we are trying to do is to say let the person whose information it is reassert control that's been taken away by technology. >> i've heard it, too, compared as a civil rights issue. do you see it that way? >> i think it's defining for the 21st century which is it is my information. >> got it. >> thank you. >> chairman wheeler, thank you. we did want to mention we reached out to a major number of providers and they agree that privacy is important but the regulation should be consistent. thank you for your time. >> thanks. they are helping equality
