7:38 pm
we're discussing are only a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the potential usage. to, you know, prevent it. >> stahl: telegram has become a go-to site for isis. they use it to widelyda like this video of the paris attackers training in syria.also use telegram to send private messages to each other to covertly plan and coordinate attacks.n your site on telegram that allows any messages, emails, to just disappear, vanish? >> pavel: yes.ges we have this secret chat feature which provides you with a self- destruct timer. >> stahl: self-destruct timer.set a specific amount of time, like a few seconds, or a minute or a

7:42 pm
specifically? >> wainright: from what we see, encryption also played a role in that part- and that's something much deeper at the moment. >> stahl: why is it still a mystery? >> wainright: it's not-- not so much of a mystery.all the details about a very sensitive investigation in public. >> stahl: we know that the28- year-old abdelhamid abaaoud, was a wanted fugitive who goaded this online isis magazine how easily he eluded them shuttling between europe and syria.ies of his exploits, often posting them online. in this gruesome video, he ando the back of a truck, abaaoud in the driver's seat: >> abdelhamid abaaoud ( translated ): we used to tow the infidels fighting us. >> stahl: what is astonishing is that you knew who he was.

): you're right. abaaoud-- he has been one of the belgium counter-terrorism for many months.is, abaaoud was suspected of guiding european jihadis in attacks in france and belgium, but the in one of them, an iphone belonging to one of the jihadis was confiscated - but it was not because it was encrypted. we've been told, and i want to confirm it, that the encrypteded you from getting information about the paris attacks. >> molins: that's a theory thatinto. but to do so, we really need to be able to get into that phone. you know, i say, all these smart because they deprive us of a lot of information that could contribute to our

7:47 pm
point. isis could come up with theiron within a month or so, if they wanted to because the- >> stahl: you mean create their own telegram? >> pavel: exactly.ov has been purging isis propaganda from telegram but says, if asked to unlock any private messages,thorities that the encryption code makes it mathematically impossible, using a similar argument as apple.saying that even if you wanted to, your hands are tied. >> pavel: yes. >> stahl: you can't do it. >> pavel: we cannot. >> stahl: so this is one of theime. which is more important? is it more important to shut down this kind of terrorism or preserve privacy?ally for the privacy side. but one thing that should be clear is that you cannot make just one exception for lawendangering private communications of
7:48 pm
because encrnot. >> stahl: the founder of telegram has told us he thinks privacy is more important thannd he wouldn't open it up even if you did ask him. >> molins( translated ): fine, that's his personal choice.are limits in all societies. there are limits to freedom and privacy. freedom doesn't mean you canthing you want. and there's a duty of institutions, police and judicial, to ensure security.om without security. for my daughter. for the little things. and the big milestones. and just like i'm there for her, pacific life is there to help protect me and my family so i can enjoyts. pacific life. helping families for over 145 years achieve

medication. and then, you get that.d of done." no, no, no. you apply for that medication. you secure it. you put it the cupboard. and you keep fighting. and we sent her packet ofto duke and mayo clinic and u.c.l.a. and everywhere that we possibly could to see what's out there. so you have cancer, you fight.s tumor kept growing. invading her brain, and causing seizures so violent they left her unable to speak for hours.ght soon leave her paralyzed and unable to take the lethal medication. so on november 1, 2014, she facebook, said goodbye, and drank the five ounces that would end her life. do you mind sharing the last few? >> diaz: um, we were um, in the and i was right next to her. there's no, like, dark cloud
7:56 pm
it-- it-- the feeling is simply within five minutes, brittany fell asleep just like i've seen her very peacefully. within 30 minutes, her breathing slowed to the point where she passed away.z has kept in touch with dr. eric walsh, the oregon physician who prescribed the medication.out the specifics of brittany's case due to patient privacy, but for the first time has agreed tothe medication to her, as well as to 19 others. >> dr. eric walsh: when somebody's facing the end of their life, shouldn't they be in control?to help them when they're suffering, and the burden of living becomes intolerable to them? >> lapook: we hear a lot aboutn experience. but it's a lot of sort of statistical detail, and not a lot of emotion. >> walsh: you're right, the
7:57 pm
human stories with the tears washed off. >> lapook: tell me about your tears, perhaps once you're involved in this.we categorize tears into a single adjective. tears of joy, tears of sorrow, tears of regret.ally in the physician aid-in-dying, these are tears that contain all-- all of those adjectives. >> lapook: elizabeth wallneras advanced colon cancer that multiple surgeries, radiation and months of chemotherapy are barely keeping at bay.f california for the right to end her life with medication. why do you feel so strongly about legislation?ly, for my son. i remember-- you know, he was 15 when i was diagnosed.ember this one time i was in the bathroom and he was taking care of me while i
7:58 pm
over at him and his face wasstated. and i just realized in thatly take so much and my family can only take so much. this child is my knight in shining armor. wallner, now 20, says he savors the time he has left with his mom, but is realistic about what lies ahead.: four-and- a-half years of fighting cancer, you've gone through enough pain and suffering. >> elizabeth wallner: yeah. >> lapook: i guess there's feeling it for sure. and i can see it in your eyes. and then there's when the moment comes. is there a little bit of a about how you'll feel then? >> nathaniel wallner: i don't think so. >> lapook: you've thought about this a lot. >> nathaniel wallner: yeah.day where i won't wish that there would be more
7:59 pm
but there will very easily be a less suffering. >> lapook: elizabeth, who was raised catholic, disagrees with those who say aid-in-dying goes >> elizabeth wallner: i don't believe in a god that would want me to suffer and struggle to death. i don't believe in an in- compassionate god.e heard that actually makes any sense is that there is some beauty in struggle. and i agree with that, there is beauty in struggle.alf years, end of a struggle, i'm good, you know? >> lapook: oregon physician dr. william toffler, who's taken care of terminally ill patientss doctors prescribing medication may not know people well enough and might miss signs of depression.on oregon's legislation is flawed is that the state isn't required to track what happens to people after they fill their prescription.er: 90% of the time here in oregon, there's no doctor present. so there's really a shroud of secrecy under this whole thing.
8:00 pm
reassuring. >> lapook: dr. toffler is referring to the fact that out of the nearly 1,000 people who've taken the medication,mplications have been reported to the oregon health authority. mostly vomiting, and sixsness at least once before dying. >> toffler: it's basically corrupting the practice of medicine where we are no longer and well-being of patients until they, they die naturally. but we're now actually hastening death by giving people massive overdoses.conflict of interest for doctors. >> lapook: dr. toffler says he faced these issues with his own wife, marlene, when she wasago. >> toffler: even with breathing difficulties, like my wife had with her terminal illness. and she had that fear.stand, "marlene, we can get through this together. we've got medicines to help relieve the air hunger. it's not gonna be that bad." and it wasn't.iams: hi dr.

8:02 pm
still excreting, stillmily at the bedside wondering, "when is this going to end?" >> lapook: that was the kind of death californian jennifer glassnt. last year, battling lung cancer, she shared her fears in online videos.a that it will end by me drowning in my own lung fluid while my family terrifying. >> lapook: but last august, when standard hospice care was noass was put in palliative sedation, which lasted five-and-a-half days. th to a peaceful death, jennifer's husband, harlan seymour, says it did not work for her. >> harlan seymour: there were times when she was gurgling,g through the mo-- the mouth and nose. and i feel that she was suffering on the inside. that it was really a terror on the inside.was it like

as the pioneer of modern architecture le corbusier, who said houses were machines for living in.e of 41, bjarke ingels is turning out a lot of unusual machines. he is the architect of thet, designing everything from skyscrapers to an n.f.l. stadium. but, as morley safer discovered,ns, can be inventive, can be provocative and are anything but boring.rke ingels is having his moment. >> bjarke ingels: when you see it from the memorial... >> safer: he's not only designing the final tower at the
8:10 pm
it continues all the way down to there. >> safer: he is trotting the globe, with some 60 projects in the works. much a work in progress. >> safer: there's the googleplex, google's futuristic complex of domes planned for its >> ingels: we were quite worried about that distance. >> safer: and the new lego headquarters in his native denmark., he has five major projects underway, including a $3 billion highrise that is a great view of new york so we decided to take to the hudson river to have a look.ssive, almost finished apartment complex for all those young and restless new yorkers striving to tell me why you call it "the court scraper?" >> ingels: it is the unlikely child of a new york skyscraper,nhagen courtyard building. >> safer: but it's also a pyramid, it also could be a
8:11 pm
>> ingels: exactly.ed we had to make it much more extreme. so it became a single tower-- toowards the water. the roof itself is something you call a saddle shape, or in geometric terms you call it a hyperbolic paraboloid. ( laughs )ke-- >> safer: say that three times quickly. >> ingels: yeah, exactly. >> safer: are you surprised how good it is, or how bad it is or how unique it is?doxical for an architect. the only thing you can see is all the battles you lost, all the compromises that had to beeep )-ups that couldn't be fixed. ( laughs ) you're going to have to bleep that out. >> danish guard: attention. >> safer: the rise and rise ofere in copenhagen, where he grew up. his father an engineer, his mother a dentist.a cartoonist, but there was no cartoon academy. so i enrolled in the royal danish art academy school of architecture. but then i really got smitten by architecture.s.
8:12 pm
ingels says he set out to disrupt modern architecture'she formulaic, boring box." >> ingels: when i started studying architecture, people would say, you know, "can you tell me why are all modern buildings so boring?"e had this idea that in the good old days-- architecture had, like, ornament and little towers and spires and gargoyles.ecomes very practical. >> safer: after graduation, ingels lasted just two yearst rem koolhaas before setting out on his own. in 2005, he formed big --for the- from his tiny apartment in copenhagen. >> ingels: denmark is one of the smallest countries on the planet. and there was something funnyig." i think if i would have started "big" in america, i wouldd it "big." there was nothing but, a little bit of local small country humor
8:13 pm
some plaza. immediately, he began to win design competitions, making a name for himself with inventive, whimsical designs for what canng: suburban apartment buildings. >> ingels: five years ago, we had built a few projects in in a way ordinary. projects, like, housing and parking and shops and offices, n a way that created the-- maybe remarkable results. and suddenly, we got an invitation to come to new york on 57th street. and-- and in a way, i had nothing better to do, so i thought, "why don't i move to new york and see how it goes?"ty well. he now oversees 300 employees between offices in new york and copenhagen.it looks like a megalomaniacal. >> safer: ingels believes his success comes from his ability to combine the practical with the fantastical.h in
8:14 pm
swim in the city's harbor. or how about this? the design for the just unveiled, complete with a moat for all those kayaking tailgaters. >> ingels: tailgating literally becomes a picnic in the park.at "big" ( cheers ) >> safer: but in off hours, blowing off steam dressed ashero isn't uncommon. that's the boss armed with a gun full of tequila.e work is maybe unlike certain architects that have a very particular style, where it is the auteur.he design principal who-- who makes the i don't have to come up with the best idea. at it-- it is always the best idea that wins. >> michael kimmelman: i think bjarke is-- is really a wonderful spokesman. i would say also for the possibility that
8:15 pm
life better for people.n is the architecture critic for "the new york times." he says ingels has combinedery of marketing, a so called "star- chitect." >> kimmelman: it's rare that yoully in their 30s and 40s who get to build big projects. and bjarke has figured that out partly by selling a certaine oldest starchitect model which is a glamour and spectacle. i think is very important nowadays, which is to combine a notion of his own work with somee. >> safer: but the thing that strikes me is a lot of people are willing to lay down billions of dollars-- >> kimmelman: billions. yeah, with a "b", yeah. >> safer: --on this kid. >> kimmelman: ( laughs ) yeah.s a gamble. he's got a lot of work coming down the pike. how is he going to make sure that work is not recycled, isfinished well?
8:16 pm
criticism by other architects. >> ingels: the more you are upthe more it's going to inspire praise and criticism. >> safer: and in your case? >> ingels: we have a fair amount the opposite. and i think if you were t-- if you were to take all of that to to-- you know, draw a line or-- or lay a brick.ls has become a celebrity at home in denmark, where he's designing the new headquarters of the most iconic at the topping off ceremony in october, townspeople waited in line in the rain to catch a glimpse of the new building and its architect.steel is the tieback. >> safer: that fame has also allowed him to take more risks and add more spectacle to his creations.a chimney that belches steam rings.
