this is peter cohen with the council of community housing organizations. i do strongly support this legislation, as you have heard from a number of our organizations and the organizations really represent those who collectively build and deliver housing and housing services to regular people, everyday folks in our communities in this time of covid and economic crisis that has made the need for affordable housing across a wide spectrum even more urgent and dramatic. so this legislation couldn't come at a better time. you know, there's a basic principle of affordable housing which is that if we need and we want more affordable housing, as everyone seems to agree right now, then we need to program more resources. it's really that simple. and this new fund that's in that important direction -- i want to call on really to appreciate that the sponsor reached out early to us and other affordable housing experts for feedback and vetting in the design of this legislation. this is not just the same old-same old and i appreciate that there's been a lot of careful tho

peter kirk i'm a former u.k. police officer yeah you're a cohen an internet law expert and author of the book the net is closing birth of the police welcome to you both peter can we kick off with you do you think people have the right to keep their communications private and of the reach of government intelligence services. yes they they do. but we didn't reason. it's not an absolute right that people should have no states. no sane state woods allow citizens absolute total privacy with no means of getting behind that available to them. there's some technical issues around this particularly but when you think about over things the states intervenes in people's privacy in lots of ways issuing a search warrant to search the house is. authorizing surveillance to follow them around or whatever it might be and we need to find the same way of the same need to achieve the same thing with encrypted digital communications this isn't new you are similar requests are made by the 5 guys last year 2018 as well the tech giants said no but are they not under some obligation to comply somewhat we're talking about very serious issues

cohen and former u.k. police officer peter kirkland discussed the issue. no sane states woods allow citizens absolute total privacy with no means of getting behind that available to them by the by i think people need to be more worried about what these commercial companies are doing with their data and what they're harvesting from their accounts rather more than what the state is harvested for the vast vast majority of people the state really couldn't care less about them there is no way the state is going to be looking at them or we've been distracted from what we should really be worrying about here trey's book is like a family restaurant so it is a family product it is something with it a lot of children there in mom and dad in grandpa and grandma and these people they know they are not asking for this level of encryption anyone who wants to use a higher level of encryption can go and use nice. what facebook is doing it is introducing all those very evaleen.

peter dixon, we will continue. in the equity markets, it's a surprise. it's absolutely extraordinary news with the stock market. this would be a considered desire to speak to abby joseph cohenwe will do that with goldman sachs, hugely anticipating that interview. yes on the equity markets, yes on the stock call, but so much more to discuss. stay with us, this is bloomberg. ♪ ritika: this is bloomberg: surveillance, i had the business flash. facebook is tightening its war on the content involving the u.s. election. they are banning political ads after voting ends. they are bracing for a contentious election night. j.p. morgan chase is spending billions to fix the racial wealth gap. the bank will also change how ' assessmentcutives of diversity is -- the highest listing on record, falling 11% to little more than $3000 per month. the coronavirus has given renters few reasons to sign leases. that's your latest. tom: let's go into the obscure data, futures on a 14 -- futures are 14 on vicks. i want to point out the sealed. this is one of the great stories where the equity recovery has negative one point 0% and we come back up 0.90. we are middle of the ground on the 10 year view

cohen about the shock of twin deficits. so much of the united kingdom is a resurgence of trade. can you do that, given the trade flatness we see now? sir peterer: -- sir peter: much of our strong trade america goes like on without a free-trade agreement, and as a result of the e.u. relationship with the united states, if we are out of the european union and without a free-trade agreement, then some of that trade is going to be more difficult. there will be automatic tariffs. there will be standards, regulations, things which get in the way of it. so the chances of making up for the damage done by 45% of our exports, which go to the rest of the european union now, being hit by tariffs, other obstacles once we are out of the single market, by trading relationship with our other partners, is pretty remote. at best, it will be status quo, but making up the difference doesn't look very likely. that said, i think a president biden administration will want to make that relationship work, but trade policies is done by congress, not by the white house. so it is not entirely in his hands. lisa: if i am hearing you correctly, are you saying there is a
