trying to break the internet may make a scary bedtime story for , but it is not reality. Tendedr democrats have to challenge their appeal in congress and in courts. Molly for more on this story, i am joined in the studio by anrice, cofounder of organization that focuses on ip security. I would like to ask you. We have this boat which d does scrap ththese net ututrality rules. What is your take on this . I think it is the end of
Net Neutrality
in the
United States
and the end of a certain kind of innovation in the
United States
. Neutrality,e net every information within the network is treated equally, which means that whether you are looking at youtube or netflix or a small blog, all the information is treated equally. Tomorrow, they wont be treated equally. Extra to have to pay have youtube, another extra to have netflix. Inning that if i want to create a new netflix, it is going to be impossible in the
United States
. It is going to change the shape of
Silicon Valley
, big time. Molly tell us more about where they stood on this come versus big telik medications companies. Fabrice
Silicon Valley
needs
Net Neutrality
because they need innovation bordering the network. Big isps need innovation within the twork and d need to credit volume within the network. The core definition of
Net Neutrality
is that the network should not bring any value added. It is going to be really difficult for isps within
Net Neutrality
to create lots of value and become richer. This is why isps do not want to hear about
Net Neutrality
, and this is why startups really want
Net Neutrality
and want
Net Neutrality
enforced, and eventually enter the trump administration. Molly have we seen all
Internet Companies
react similarly to this net thing, google versus netflix . Fabrice netflix is obviously in dire straits, because you are going to have to pay extra to have netflix, and your isp is going to create netflix equivalents and they will be in competition. Of course, the isp will create a cheaper netflix, a more efficient netflix, a more speedy netflix, and your netflix especially in france might become difficult to watch because your isp will not want you to watch it. It wants you to watch his netflix. He cannot do this if he does not have to respect
Net Neutrality
. Mention france. Should we expect some links similar in europe . Reese the situation is different. Macron, we have a big boost and we want to create innovation bordering the network. If we do not enforce
Net Neutrality
in france and in europe, the same thing will happen. Big isps will become richer and innovation bordering the network will die. We really need this innovation bordering the network. You just starting to create a really nice ecosystem to create cool innovation bordering the network in france. Works on my startup a huge project made by an isp to create innovation bordering the network. Our current environment is really keen on this kind of innovation. If they were to kill
Net Neutrality
, they would kill those products. I dont think, considering the steaks on a purely economic level, that
Net Neutrality
will die in france anytime soon. When we have the lawmakers, republican lawmakers when they want to describe
Net Neutrality
because it would allow for better inteternet for americanans y you are sayingt does not fly . A brief it does not, fabrice it does not. But if they kill innovation in the
United States
, it is a big chance for europe. We might not become leaders, but we would become not followers. We could become
Something Big
when it comes to internet innonovation because thehe unitd stes i is killing it. It is a great opportunity for us. Molly very interesting stuff. Thank you very much.

Member states, where they did give the green light to phase two going ahead. Not really a surprise that this happened. We have had an interim deal brought up between the u. K. And he e. U. Figures just one week ago. I am sure our viewers remember that predawn kerfuffle with lots of press conferences from important people saying, i think we have got sufficient progress on some very key issues that have been
Holding Things
up. Remind our viewers, phase two going ahead as of today, that this is about two months behind schedule. The key sticking points were what seems to happen to the 5 million e. U. Citizens in the u. K. , and vice versa. What are their rights going to be . What is going to happen on the irish border . Will a hard border be there . Weatherby no border . And how much is the u. K. Going to pay to leave the
European Union

K. And
European Union
will have once the u. K. Has actually left. There has been a lot of talk about the trade relationship, but it is not just trade. There are issues of security, cooperation over terrorism, which has been been a big issue. Things like defense foreign policy, areas where the u. K. And the e. U. Are closely bound together at this point. We are going to start off looking at the transition elbow transition period after the official brexit date. A figure of two years is being knocked about. Once that is fixed, the e. U. Says it will be a precise transition timetable. As well, the u. K. Will have to abide by e. U. Laws during that transition, without having the ability to influence any new year laws that might be made. That is quite galling to a lot of people in the u. K. , whichever side of the
Brexit Debate
they fall on the idea that the u. K. Will more or less still be a knee you member state without being able to influence anything that goes on here. , thefor transition talks trade relationship starting to be talked about. That will happen at the earliest as of march 2018. The next
European Council
summit back in brussels the u. K. Talking about different models for that relationship. Will it be what norway has at the moment, or switzerland, or canada . Still so many questions.

Better Business<\/a> ventures of all time. Molly perhaps. Brian, thank you very much for that. It is time now for our press review. And i am joined by allison sergeant for a look at what is grabbing headlines. You are going to start in the
United States<\/a>. We are seeing a lot of reaction to the decision to end
Net Neutrality<\/a>. Tell us a bit. Allison media in the u. S. Is in arms over this decision. We could start with a cartoon that gives you an idea of what the world might look like without
Net Neutrality<\/a>, according to some newspapers. This is a cartoon out of newsday from long island, new york. It is a little bit like being stuck in your car behind a very slowmoving truck. That slowmoving truck is your
Internet Service<\/a> provider blocking your way. If you want them to speed up or get out of the way, you have to pay a bit of money. They have some of those prices listed on the back of that truck. His article from the daily beast summarizes what a lot of papers are saying about this decision. They say it is a blow to consumers and a big win for corporations like verizon and comcast. The daily beast notes the current chair of the fcc used to work for verizon and had been talking about getting rid of
Net Neutrality<\/a> since the day donald trump appointed him. Andas dismissed criticism once joked about being verizons puppet. The daily beast says it is not a joke. Molly those defending this change say it will create more equality. Allison right wing paper the wall street journal say the internet is free again. The paper emphasizes, as many on the right do, that

Service Providers<\/a> are about to become the new gatekeeper. Molly lets turn our attention to france. Papers reacting to thursdays tragedy yesterday, when a train plowed into a school bus, killing four children and injuring over a dozen more. Allison this happens not far from the border with spain.

We can see clinton making his bid for reelection, but he cannot seem to figure out why no one else is running. If you look behind him, you get a good idea why. This may make some of us laugh, but the wall street journal has a word of warning against the western media. Russian political observers say that when the west criticizes putin, it increases the convictions of his supporters back at home. Molly back on the internet.
