the caliphate's existed. every day it was not losing to aspire them in social media, that is the phase we're in right now because isis spread through a troop presence with the social media platform set up to continue to inspire so what do we do about it? i will give you some basic direction. we must address recruitment that is what this conference is all about. >> so we have to realize to dave that permanent residency one thing americans said does better is we do with sibilate -- assimilate but we have to ask how many can we assembly? -- as the late. any nation has to secure the border. assimilation is skier -- key. to describe the tolerance if we extend to those who are not they're not prepared to tolerate a tolerant society against the onslaught that it will be destroyed. america is a very tolerant society almost above anything else of our freedom and liberty and compassion but in the new era or the new face or the new threat of national security we need to ask ourselves we don't allow a child pornography on the internet. but we have the books on how to create a bomb or which truck to buy if you of the doubt i

the social media platforms don't want to appear too close to the government. what mimic did was create a third party model where everybody could talk to one another and get the benefit of the collective wisdom to make the decisions about what had to come down. and i think that's what's needed here now, right? the social media companies, the private sector ought to fund it, it ought to pull together law enforcement, the intelligence world who can help identify with coded language, help identify, bring technology to bear and this is a place, a third party center to address this sort of extremists on-line, i think, is what's necessary to be able to police it at scale. >> and if any of the members of the audience have questions, they have microphones. question, anyone? here we go. >> can you hear me? >> i can hear you, we can hear you, there's a microphone right there. i see the microphone, it's hard to see. . >> here we go. hi, i just had a quick question regarding, obviously, a lot of thought has gone into this, a lot of actual coding has gone into this. my back

the consumer. here, i have very little power. there is one social media site, facebook. there so i have very little power as a consumer. where the power is, is the advertisers. those are the companies that have gotten the social media companies to move by essentially withholding -- >> but you have to get to the point where the advertising companies want to do that. peter, your solution? solve this for us? >> people are going to do bad things and influenced by other people. but i want to sort of, in defense of the social media companies, say that facebook has hired a counterterrorism expert. they're very sophisticated. will mccats, who is a scholar in the jihadi move. there's an understanding we need to get on this, and i think obviously social pressure had a huge part to play. so it's not the government it turns out. but since these are american companies, we can exert social pressure with some success. i will say one other thing. in a jurisdiction somewhere in the woshlrld, not in the united states, some people exceed suing a social media company, but for a social media,

being asked to help the country's immigration authorities it's reported they are planning to vet the social media accounts of people who want visas with more on what's proposed kill or block but. the information revolution and the boom of social media have put the world at our fingertips but they've also created some very convenient tools for the government so is the i.t. sector still what the users want us immigration and customs enforcement has asked tech companies microsoft included to help them screen the social media of people holding or applying for american visas in order to make that happen the government is asking them to develop special algorithms we have millions and millions and millions of people coming every year and subsequently to processing so we have to be smart about it and i'm sure there are tools out there that can help for microsoft this won't be the first experience they've had working with u.s. authorities last month microsoft released a program called as your government a cloud service of classified information customers with secret requirements can expect to gain access

because of the first amendment, some people succeed in suing a social media company on the grounds of, but for social media company, my son would not have been killed. we see this in israel. it will succeed somewhere, i'm fairly confident. that will also change this discussion. i would add that while we don't have a lot of power, to the extent that each of you is on multiple social media sites, and as you are scrolling through the feed, you see something that you will go past it because you are not interested, it doesn't appeal to you, but it is a violation of the terms of service. literally it is 15 seconds for you to hit a button and help twitter, this should not be here, this is not appropriate content, and it will make a difference. when you say what can people do, we put together a nonprofit and we hire people to do that. they are doing it every day, but the general public can be a force multiplier. we are not asking that much. to, leverage, your ability by the way, tag your congressman or senator said he sees you are everybodythis, if takes some small amount of time to do it, it

not going to use your product anymore it really will and could be problematic especially with the social media monitoring of immigrants and really the social media monitoring of all americans and in foreigners and people abroad it has implications beyond you know just whether or not the u.s. in these private industries are working together they're definitely working together whether it's for profit over something more nefarious we don't know at this point but i would say this is something more people should be paying attention to there's always been private industry working for governments that's kind of a standard practice but i do think that what we're seeing is this relationship between big business corporate america and the u.s. government it's getting further and further and meshed in till they're becoming just one single entity. u.s. regulators say their plans to revoke so-called net neutrality rules have widespread public back and it's a move that could lead to a two speed internet where some side paid to get that traffic prioritized over others but it seems not all the public feedback

you are in the media business if you are in radio and broadcast you are highly regulated. social media outlets are not regulated at all. why are the terrorists going to this form of communication? there is the dark internet where it is encrypted. telegraham websites where they can talk to each other. i think it is very ironic that as we were having a hearing about how radical islam is using the internet to recruit in our own backyard within the timeframe of the hearing you have an attack by somebody who seems to fit that profile. all i'm saying is we are at war. i believe in civil liberties and constitutional principles. i have been a military lawyer for 33 years. torture does not work. i reject torture as a technique. i believe in the rule of law but i believe in making america safe within reason. right now the internet and social media outlets are ungoverned space just as much as africa is ungoverned. the terrorists go to ungoverned spaces on the ground and on cyber and using the cyber ungoverned spaces to generate attacks against us. all i can say is the war is coming to our b

art of social media drives the science. figure out what bad actors will do and it's much easier to detect. this proactively needs to be advanced to help technical detection improve. i admire the social media companies that are begun to fact check news articles. these efforts should continue but will be completely inadequate, stopping false information landing on social medias comes only when those outlets are silenced. i propose the equivalent of nutrition labels, rating icons and news links and social media feeds. provides users an assessment and opinion versus reported. it would opt in a not infringe on freedom of speech and freedom of the press. it should sit separate from the social media companies but the utilize. users wanting to consume it would not be prohibited, there misled by the truth have only themselves to blame. it's been more than year since we described how russians attacked democracy. we learn more about their campaigns i now watch as the world's worst regimes duplicate their methods. were stalled and were

the question i would like to ask you all, one that is specific part of what made the media campaign successful and a part of why the russians were sophisticated and social media is that they understood the algorithms that you use a ten to the content that is either fear-based or anger based that helps thopes to pick up an audie that goes viral to be amplified. it's not only the foreign occupation bumanipulation but an terms of the degree to which the algorithms are designed to attract our attention and keep our eyes focused on the platform for advertising purposes may also have the unintended consequence of widening divisions among the society too polarizing people because what ends up percolating the top of the feed tends to be things we were looking for and things that the algorithms can both capture attention to a greater degree. my question is what corporate or societal obligation on both of these issues, the manipulation of the platforms but also more broadly the fact that rhythms are designed to attract attention and may also have the unintended consequence but the real consequence of putting america against america in a way that the russians so c

stephanie is this possible for the government to just say we want to have a look at that social media and that one. well the government can always have a whole slew of tools that they can use to get at someone's digital information with facebook they sent first subpoena and then i think followed it up with warrants and that was actually served spaced out with a series of gag orders trying to make sure that these that wouldn't notify its users that this is what the d.o.j. was doing the department of justice. what's really concerning here is that they were really trying to keep this under wraps for so long i think price eisley because they knew that as soon as the public learned about what they were doing and how far reaching their kind of gripe digital dragnet was passed there would be widespread protests against that and really severe public scrutiny which in fact happened once it came to light digital dragnet as a great fright that means anything that they want they can just get grabbed it just stays at you mean by that well they can certainly send a legal orders to the various a thi

i really believe with the advent of social media and the targeting and the specificity with which campaigns or hackers or you know, others can send out inform and send out messages and influence, and that we have no idea that it's happening, that we have no record of such -- of those communications or of those ads, and i think that this is a problem that we have just recently discovered in -- as an issue for our -- our national election. but i believe that it is only going to grow, and i feel like we as a commission are very uniquely positioned to study this issue to invite public comment to invite, you know, stakeholders because i think we all have a stake in this, all of us who vote. because the information that we get is only as clear and transparent as the disclosure that comes with it. we know where it's coming from and who's paying for it, and the immediacy of social media it powerful, and it doesn't take a lot of money to reach a lot of people. so to me, i think this is kind of a burning house that i would -- i think we should turn or attention to, you know, with with all deliberate
