. >> chairman johnson, ranking member larsen, members of the subcommittee. thank you for the opportunity to testify to. my name is samuel lester, consumer privacy counsel at the -- this is a nonprofit research organization in washington d.c. established in 1994 to focus public attention on emerging privacy and civil liberties issues. i appreciate your interest in this critical topic. i cannot overstate the urgency that we update our privacy laws. there is no other form of personal information that poses a greater threat to privacy than the social security number. recent equifax breach exposes the social security numbers of over half of the us adult population. the ssn was never meant to be an all-purpose identifier in the private sector. it was first introduced in 1936, it was be used only to the social security taxes. the fact that it is now so pervasive as an identifier and authenticator, a username and a password, it is undoubtedly contributed to the alarming rise in data breaches, identity theft and financial fraud. ssn is the key to the kingdom for iden

keith morrison: tammy gilden and her mother, sharon larsen, called the sheriff's department to complains trespassing in the locked parking lot of a grange hall just a half mile from mark's house. in fact, they said, they saw two cars. one, id'd by the license number, was mark's white chevy station wagon. parked back to back, said the ladies with a black suzuki suv. and they saw someone moving something between the cars. and he's bent over and he has his arms around a big roll of clear plastic, and my brain goes, there's a body. oh, tammy, no, there's not a body. you've been reading too many good murder mysteries. keith morrison: the man transferring the plastic and whatever was in it, drove off in his suv, the ladies reported, leaving mark stover's station wagon behind. the sheriff's dispatcher sent a deputy to have a look. and sure enough, the deputy found mark's car inside the apparently locked parking lot, behind this chain. except the lot wasn't exactly locked anymore. when the deputy looked closer to the chain link, he discovered that one of the links had been cut and the link was

larsen? >> thank you, mr. chairman. i want to explore this last question -- over here, sorry -- that mr. whitman asked a little bit more. because when we developed the atomic bomb we controlled that process. we developed the space program, the government controlled it. to catch up or to lead on a.i. on clown computing, machine learning, we don't control that. it's largely already being driven by the private sector. and so the fundamental question i have, is there a money ball question here? that is, are we going to only be hitting singles and doubles, like the dds or the sco or diux, or do we get into an issue where -- get to a place where we're hitting home runs, where we're actual able to do a government investment in the quantum computing, into a.i., that's big enough to set the foundation? otherwise we're relying on the private sector to do that. and the private sector may not want that big investment from the government to help them leapfrog the foundational technologies. >> well, sir, the private sector will and w

ross larson, great to have -- -- larsen, great to have your take on the deal.arkets? ♪ caroline: the world's largest publicly traded hedge fund has said regent bond defaults from china are signs of regulators attempts to regulate the markets. we sat down with man group ceo luke ellis and talked about rates going forward. luke: rates are gradually drifting higher in the u.s., and equities are gradually drifting higher based on decent growth. as long as you have decent growth, equities can perform. the concern everybody has is, when do we get a change in the environment? ton do rates get high enough cause something that is a policy mistake that causes a collapse in growth? i think most investors spend too much time expecting tomorrow to be different than yesterday. most of the time, it is more of the same thing we have generally same. ,n february, clearly, december january, the equity markets got ahead of themselves. in february, a weird technical thing that it off. basically, people were too long. the same, you could argue, on friday. the bond market, we got a r
