Supporters and the e. U. Russia calling israel to scrap it and its a plan backed by the u. S. Image fears he will have a huge impact on hopes for peace. But i welcome to day here in moscow youre watching r. T. International now a coronavirus tracing outfit was rolled out in france alerted to just 14 uses about their potential exposure over the course of the last 3 weeks that is despite the country recording many new cases of the virus every day Charlotte Pinsky looks at what. Stop coded. It was a priest to be a bright idea that could help prevent a 2nd wave of infections and on your smartphone that uses bluetooth signals to keep track of the devices and therefore the people that you come into contact with and what it was a few weeks ago the french digital minister said it could also to a flying start as of this morning 600000 people managed to download the app so its a very very good start. Well after a few hiccups perhaps including a delayed release that so many people in france accidentally downloading tracing up one for catalonia. Ok so after a cold start some 2000000 people actually did download it corowa you might think given that there are an estimated 47000000 people in france was smart phones thats barely a dip in the ocean ok some 2000000 people die lou does it but almost immediately 460000 men decided that it wasnt a great idea and deleted it so weve got much on to the streets of paris to find out who took the plot. Number 2 no no no no no no we do the thing. Yes somebody who is actually down loaded it but then she said this is it if yes i dont looted it but i didnt really understand how it worked every time i tried to use it nothing so raw you were is this a true resistance to an up that was only supposed to keep you safe from the biggest threat the more world has ever apparently seen. I take precautionary measures like a mosque but so i have a problem with giving my personal data if this application is for that reason i didnt download it. Its a net for the Younger Generation i wasnt interested in like younger people who move around a lot for their work. But i didnt take the time to download it oh did you leave in a safe way for example i did bike and stop taking the metro a see my friends but i dont need a lot of people i dont have the need to download it because its centralized i plainly and truthfully im quite wary of what would be done with may they. Know and im not fond of the principle behind the that issue of the personal data really had the french in much more civil rights activists were concerned about the right to the right to privacy while hundreds of academics voiced fears that they take out those could be repurposed for us surveillance but perhaps they had nothing to worry about off there or was it since emerged that only iran 68. 00 people informed the platform that they had been infected with covert and only 14 uses were alerted that they were at risk thats not going down well with those we spoke with we serve its a bit of a food live yes i think that 14 is not many it was only 14 people who are informed. By shows its not as successful as hosts by the authorities i think that people were a bit wary about this exchange on the mobo would you continue to pay for something you dont use no i dont think so paying for something which is not used one should ask question. Clearly delete is the other thing that nobody was thinking the up would work anyway france is digital minister has been trying to save face saying the numbers reflect a decrease in. Virus is prevalent and this is true the numbers of infections have been steadily declining in france said to break oh says he will be useful if theres a new spike in cases until then the french state looks set to pick up a bill of up to 120000. 00 euros a month for an app that you are using challenged you will ski r. T. Now meanwhile the u. S. Is seen a record daily increase in cope with 1000 cases are reaching 40000 new infections on thursday those figures were revealed by Johns Hopkins university. The previous high was back in april with just over 36000 cases the u. S. Still tops the global infection chart so you with almost 2 and a half 1000000 cases this new surge put on hold plans to reopen several states including texas florida and arizona despite that though president trunk does say his country is coping well with the pandemic. We have the greatest Testing Program in the world weve developed it over a period. And were up to almost 30000000. 00 since that means were going to have more cases if we do want to test or if we didnt just we wouldnt have cases but we have cases because we test deaths. We have one of the lowest mortality rates weve done an incredible historic. Well as he said there in terms of metallic t. Rates the u. S. Is not doing as badly it has 9 globally with over 38 deaths for every 100000 people however the surge in infections is high and is being put down to young people testing positive especially in states in the south and west of the country or the way the crisis has been handled in the u. S. Has dealt a blow to the countrys reputation in europe and you survey does show that 56 percent of those questioned in 9 countries do believe that americas image has suffered during the pandemic while just 6 percent believe it has improved we are asked some europeans for their families. They dont have such an effective medical system as others do it the Social Security system in america differs from ours for the moment and so europe does better choices but it isnt united. For now i would i prefer the french sorry then the americans the Good Health System and Health Care System so it makes it better and makes us happy to be in france right now but at the same time i cant really judge them like its not you can see french people partying in doing. Music festival and stuff so we are not better actually we cannot really compare. Europe everybody mostly rashed in the common way and only germany maybe suffered. Comparing casual interest in france italy with america i think they have. No in them we have since difficult to say. Because i was a little older and i did study to have managed coffee tomorrow. In fact it is enough to count to 10 so i believe we have control dont manage the intended target of. Europe this is a 20 look in damage to americas i was not taken seriously a person like truong has done nothing to you he wasnt going to build discipline shooting out mexicans i suppose he was on some people in a fight on the farmers and that if you could have done you know not in the snow on the rest i mean. When you want to argue separate so i believe that we can all george w. Just when you are say its a large country that has a different door from oz has different Economic Resources and a different population we too have made on the stakes. Facebook is facing a huge boy caught from really creative advertisers who believe it isnt doing enough to fail to hate speech no surprise in the days dont trump that has a lot to do with their fury but a new undercover report by project very task also suggests the social media giant has actually been censoring the president s supporters for some time jacki bigger has more. Oh how the mighty have fallen ok maybe not fallen but facebook and other platforms that owns like instagram are getting hit where it hurts by an advertising boycott led by civil Rights Groups in the us every day we see ads from companies place to jasons to hateful content occupying the same space as extremist recruitment groups and harmful disinclination campaigns you add buying dollars being used by the confidence to increase its dominance in the industry at the expense of vulnerable and marginalized communities who are often targets of hate groups on facebook that started out small but as the days go by bigger and more powerful Companies Like ne viber are dropping their ads and things really got kicked up a notch when verizon join the fray a company that reportedly spent almost 2000000. 00 on advertising on the 2 platforms just last month now this is all a push in order to get the social media giant to increase moderation on its side could protect and support black uses could they called out Holocaust Denial as hate could they help gets out the vote but absolutely could but theyre actively choosing not to do so lets send facebook a powerful message your profits will never be worth promoting hates bigotry racism antisemitism and violence and a large number of facebook employees seem to agree with that just a couple weeks ago they conducted a virtual walkout after the us president wrote a post that was deemed by many to be inciting violence after the incidents occurred said that the company would be reviewing its policies but also cautioned against new forms of moderation in general i worry that this approach has a risk of leading us to editorialize on content we dont like even if it doesnt violate our policies so i think we need to proceed very carefully and yet thats just the problem the Company Seems to have a new undercover report has once again revealed an anti trump left leaning bias at the company i worked as a subcontractor for facebook i was seeing them interfering on a global level intellect. And then i saw a blame exception that just targeting conservatives or favored liberals we really have to take the word from. The left side yes good from outside of the realist which is that maybe one of the select growing political ads though so now they can get more exposure to the left there is the right right but facebook obviously had to give 100 percent believe to fight lining conservative opinions and meddling and elections crazy right now if you come as no surprise that the right isnt happy with social media giants either twitter royally ticked off trump when they put a label on a couple of his posts warning that they could be potentially misleading he responded with executive order to 30 choices the twitter makes one it uses to suppress blacklists shadow and our editorial decisions pure and simple their editorial decisions in those moments twitter seasons to be a neutral public platform of the become an editor with a viewpoint and i think we can say that about other source and whether youre looking to google whether youre looking in facebook social Media Companies that engage in censoring or any political content will not be able to keep their liability shield and now a number of users are calling it quits and link to platforms that call themselves on bias that remains to be seen but in light of all this something tells me that dr bird is ruing the day he ever even enter the thought of regulating content on a 5 all my name a fighting russian metal one of my greatest regrets in running the company is that we were slow in identifying the russian Information Operations in 2016 we were slow to identifying the type of new Information Operations ever since then the debate over whats moderation and what censorship have gotten more and more nuanced and guess what thats not going away the users just might be. More than a 1000 politicians in europe have signed a letter asking israel to drop its an extension pace plan approved by the United States president from believes it will benefit everybody involved does fear it could actually end up for peace in the middle east. This move will be fatal to the prospects of Israeli Palestinian peace and will challenge the most basic norms Guiding International relations including the un charter acquisition of territory by force has no place in 2020 and must have commensurate consequences i call on the israeli government. Its an extension. Of my vision presents a win win opportunity for both its a realistic 2 state solution that resolves the risks for Palestinian Statehood to israels security today israel has taken a giant step toward peace its a great plan for israel its a great plan for peace frankly mr president given all that youve already done fruitful im not surprised well the socalled peace plan would keep cheery slim is israels undivided capital leaving palestine with a capital on the outskirts of the city palestine would also be demilitarized to remove any potential threat to Israel West Bank and guard i would remain part of palestine and be connected by roads and tunnels president from port offered 50000000000 dollars of investment to the palestinian authorities although that would come in exchange for israel gaining gaining control of security most resources and the diplomatic and security arrangements of palestine the palestinian authorities to reject all notions that the plan from the 1st moment was presented and they havent changed their position in the least testing that is all of the International Community being in school on your land but i will believe very well all of that will lead to an international will to advance Regional Peace and security and to preserve the rule based molecular go all. We must prove it wrong. But there isnt a view shared by the u. S. And israel washington calls the plan peace to perspire an claims it will end hostility by promoting security dont trump says it is a great opportunity is no palestinians will have to leave their homes israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu has set a date of july the 1st for his cabinet to begin discussions on moving forward with a plan. First of all it is illegal under International Law because these are a listing in territories there are plenty of United Nations resolutions calling for israel not to build or to encroach on the mainland israel has miley quite a number of un laws over the years and it has done so with impunity i hope International Community which is very weak on this conflict for years this time will take on sions of the danger behind this and action i hope with all my heart that we can prevent this dangerous move that israel governments doing now this is time now that we can he had to International Rules and norms sadly theres only one country that can persuade israel not to build on this land so United States of america and donald trump as you know all really disregards United Nations and International Law by saying yes to anything israel wanted to do. I think is marginal nice him self and this conflict and this is about credibility and i think with trungpa new situation united says it has lost a lot of trouble too. To bring. In this conflict really we need to look at europe and im hoping that european governments will rise to the occasion and tell israel. Should not do this and if they do or dont they should be a sanctions imply it implied on them if this is an exception is coming for real. Real sanctions one of the most profound aspect of this letter is because its crossed party because its crossed you know sort of you know you crossed europe and it has leading figures who have supported israel and palestine over decades i think. The International Community specially europe needs to say enough is enough we have the power to refix the balance and citrus rael we are partners we are friends but we also friends of the Palestinian People and we want peace in this region so think about what youre doing. And work for peace instead of destroying the 2 state solution if an action is this country. In 3 days or a few weeks this will be a huge a major turn over in this conflict and i dont know what distant you can bring in but i see nothing but the bench or. Now in spain or a famous painting has been made im recognizable after restoration work a decided to add a little bit of creativity now that i consider conservationists are calling for stricter laws as the painting isnt the 1st priceless treasure to being given a bad make over. I dont think these people should be referred to as restorers lets be honest theyre buggers who botched things up they destroy things. For the coming few Extinction Rebellion activists a bank this time promoting shoplifting to fight poverty in the u. K. That story and more just off the. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race is on all sides very dramatic developments only closely im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical. To sit down and talk. Welcome back the environmental Pressure GroupExtinction Rebellion staged a rematch come back this week. A number of new protests around the world including a shoplifting stunt against poverty in the u. K. Shadi and. Reports. Its been a while since Climate Change activists extinction or rebellion have been well making any headlines but on thursday they were back in the news after a seemingly provocative stunt that seems to be based on the old robin hood tale robbing from the rich to give to the poor in london 5 activists were shoplifting in a food shop although they targeted a Major Corporate chain rather than a smaller private business running out of the supermarket they then proceeded to give all of their bounty away in a protest against poverty they also slap stickers around the shops which were proclaiming things like new lower price free because poverty sucks news the infamous Marie Antoinette slogan let them eat cake with the word cake crosstown their banners im not stealing food im a gift aiding it were changing the rules because. This is not against sainsburys but the profiteering of a basic human need the stunt also proclaimed the appearance of a new Political Party called u. K. Beyond politics and is aiming big 1st target next years marathon actions in london and they promise its just the start were seeing. There have been 20000. That. The political cost to respond to the extinction of the human race this move into the world of Democratic Politics has surprised many people because extinction of a party and has always prided itself on being a direct action group and movement all about staging numerous acts of civil disobedience all across the world never the less they are widely accused of vandalism and promoting a populist agenda and all the while police in the u. K. Particularly have been quite cautious and worried about taking any action against them and they fear of violating their human rights to protest so what do the people on the streets of london make of this rebellion moving up in the world into a different category. If youre stealing from a shop and give it now it is very robin hood but i dont think thats how they should be protesting its all up by stealing doesnt set a good example of how the both of them. Its. Been a lot of quit just to keep it away but at the same time. You dont really need to pay to call it. All that it sounded good what theyve done. But at the end of day no not they didnt pay for it and i think the concept is a good idea im all for it you know taxing the rich or more in order to redistribute up funds you know more efficiently and fairly but to display theyre doing right by it isnt the right way to go back to my. Ex are clearly have some big plans but they might have a way to go from sitting on the streets to sitting in parliament. Detroit Police Department and Prosecutors Office has to reassess events which led to the wrongful arrest of a black man Robert Williams juju a flaw in facial Recognition Technology the citys mayor has apologized for the case of the rio and that case and joined prosecutor kym worthy in my apology to mr williams but you have to think of the case and the case in my mind is about sub detective work and sub par werent prosecutor work back in january for but williams was arrested and held for more than a day on charges of theft police said facial Recognition Technology had matched his old drivers license photo with grainy Surveillance Footage of the incident williams himself said it was obvious a mistake had been made. What i look at the picture of the guy i just see a big black guy i dont see a resemblance i dont think you looks like me at all well Face Scanning Technology is used by ordinary people every day to unlock their smartphones or tag friends on social media however when it comes to Police InvestigationsArtificial Intelligence has drawn a lot of criticism or false matches and it does seem to it makes more mistakes when it comes to darker skinned people to troy police say that they have brought in new rules because of the williams case facial Recognition Software is an investigative tool that is used to generate leads only additional investigative work corroborating evidence and probable cause required before a rest can be made where the founder of the encrypted Internet Service on thing believes that while face recognition should help in criminal cases it shouldnt be the sole evidence used. There are cameras everywhere now and the Law Enforcement didnt even have to pay for the cameras if you look at the video cameras you look at the cameras and peoples phones the resolution is in some cases its almost like a theater or a Movie Theater so youve got very high quality resolution youve got people who are youve got a ubiquity of these cameras and now you have the software thats able to decode it and you know relevance to make actionable information for Law Enforcement at least so they think now i think what you have to do is you have to handicap and say well theres probably a probability that this person might be the person you cannot hang your hat 100 percent on anything it is not absolute so is that used to determine that this person is going to get arrested no they have to go find a bunch of other evidence that you can put the person at that location at that same time with their cell phone with license plates with somebody had a fingerprint or theres d.
