such thing as a private company. chinese government can have access to it, particularly through their intelligence services at any point. and what we also saw today was how close they are to china. they were repeatedly asked. can you say that the weaker genocide is happening? and they say, oh, i m not an expert hemmed and hard, and they then tried to compare themselves to other platforms like facebook, instagram and twitter. look yuan musk is a lot of things, but the last time i checked, he has not been participating in any sort of concentration cancer genocide of another group, and lastly, the thing that really scared me today was the answer. when the ceo was asked, have you used tiktok to spy on americans? you know what he said? i wouldn t call it spying. and what would facebook call it spying? what they do. it s probably doesn t have any direct relationship with the chinese intelligence services. one point i would make is that facebook did have does have connections to genocide that
and technology skills. bethan lewis reports. these year seven pupils have already started learning under a new curriculum and in three years time they ll be starting brand new gcse courses. today, more detail about the content and how they ll be assessed. the head teacher here welcomes the promise of less focus on a final set of exams. if covid has taught us anything, it s that to rely on a set of exams, terminal exams at the end of year 11 is to create one single point of failure. so we re really looking forward to seeing that balance of assessment throughout the course. it s been decided already to keep the gcse brand. some would have preferred to see them scrapped and to merge language and literature in one gcse, and the three separate sciences into one qualification. i was quite happy to hear that there s going to be more options in different subjects. i liked how there s going to be introducing dance and engineering. i think it s very impressive -
overall failures that we just that the incident commander did not believe this to be an active shooter situation and to use normal protocols for rapid deployment. a mere lack of communication would not be enough. he s hearing he has some situational awareness. he s already been told someone is in there. he knows that there s gunshots. and so to me, that might be one cause, but it doesn t explain the overall failures. and honestly, i don t think you re going to find a single point of failure. i think you re going to find multiple ones over the course of whatever investigation we can trust. so you say the lack of communication is not enough. at what point does instinct, you know, prevail or override what might be protocol that everyone understands to be in place, or a failure of communication? when does instinct simply say,
2006. le stay on the board until his term expired next year. let s bring in tech reporter brian fung. why is he leaving? well he said it is time for someone who isn t a founder to lead the company. he said companies often who place too great of an emphasis on what founders want and how they believe the company should be run and that is limited and increasing a single point of failure. yes, dorsey is a co-founder of the company. he sent the first tweet in 2006 and was brought back in 2015 to rein rigor ate growth and since then they have dealt with misinformation and hate speech on the platform as well as the potential for regulations and legislation now facing the company. and other tech companies as well. and but at the same time, twitter insists that this is the right time for dorsey to step aside and he does acknowledge this was his decision and he owns it. let me read you a snippet of
those.ening procedures, policies and oversight, different ways of making sure that we cannot have as occurred here in certain instances a single point of failure. that s one of the lessons here that s totally unacceptable. so part of what s built in is a bunch of, as i said, double and triple even quadruple checks to make sure that doesn t happen, both in terms of how the initial checks are handled and the appropriate urgency there but also in terms of communication. one of the important recommendations is reporting to state and local law enforcement as well as communications between field offices, transfers between field offices. i can go into more detail, but those are part of it. the last thing i would say is there are some things that occurred here that are so basic and so fundamental and so foreclosed by our policies, as inspector general horowitz said,
