ALJAZAM Consider This January 16, 2014

His attack, five years ago today captain sully sullenberger, landed a jet in the middle of the hudson river. A flock of geese took out the engines right after takeoff. All 155 passengers and crew members were rescued. Im john siegenthaler. Consider this is up next. Remember, you can always get the latest news on aljazeera. Com. White house helpless to stop it . Also a new ruling could dramatically change the way we use the internet. Might it limit free speech . Plus arod blasted by americas antidoping agency. With no negative drug test whats ahead . How much does it cost to get nominate . Im antonio mora and welcome to consider this. Heres more on whats ahead. The security was inadequate. There were plenty of advance warnings. This is going to go down as the i think thats a threat to Internet Freedom that the fc now has largely unconstrained authority to regulate the internet this any way they want. Sarah . I think you look at it that different way that jeff does. Certainly. I think the loss of the open internet rules was a tremendous one for users. Where beings and internet subscribers and also for content providers who would otherwise want to provide new Innovative Services to those end users and their ability i think to do that could be extremely limited and hamstrung Going Forward. Jeff, lets try talk about this in english. Basically what happens here is that Companies Internet Service Providers the verizons and comcasts and at ts of the world can basically decide whether or not they want to charge some of the people who have websites money for delivering them to you. Is that a good way of putting it . Thats an exactly correct. They have that authority you know in the mobile broadband space today. So lets just take an example of one in the news this week and thats at ts plan to charge espn for information thats carried over mobile Networks Rather than charging consumers for that same information. So at t is saying to consumers you know well charge you less or not count it against your data caps when you watch espn content because weve gotten espn to agree to pay for that instead of you. I think most consumers are going to think thats a pretty good deal and that would have been prohibited in the wire line broadband world by these rules except those are gone and those deals are permitted, again i think thats a good thing for consumers. Sarah, why should i care if its the espns and the youtube and the other companies that have to pay the Corporate Giants . The idea that users can access whatever content they want online. Whatever websites they want online, they can communicate with whoever they want to online. Without these rules in place their ability to do that is severely threatened. Wikipedia has nearly 4. 5 million articles on their english site alone. Imagine wikipedia as they were going through their growth and becoming this large company, an Internet Provider would say, you know, i dont want my users to access wikipedia, its not kind of vision i want to portray to my customers or maybe they were about to build their own cloud sourced encyclopedic service. Based on wikipedia as a threat, or College Professors who see it as a headache rather than a help, its a valuable service in the internet space, and absent the rules provide and where the internet isnt a platform and aural types of Service Websites and services can compete, we just dont see we wont see that type of innovation and disruptiveness Going Forward. Sarah you have a point. Weve seen it with cable providers, they dont like their deal with cbs as timewarner didnt, they took cbs off the air for weeks. Would we want that to have timewarner or comcast or verizon saying youtube isnt paying me enough money so im not going to give you youtube . Lets look at a couple of different points. First of all the kinds of disputes you are talking about here happen extremely rarely. The reason why theyre so rare, those kinds of disputes happen less frequently than your electricity goes out. You are much more likely to not be able to watch something on television because your electricity was out, than because there was a dispute between them. The reason why, theres win win win deals, the consumers benefit, the distributors benefit, the notion that tan isp a verizon would cut off a wikipedia or google is a little wacky, it hasnt happened, the reason it is wacky is, to destroy or to make those kinds of Services Unavailable ask to make themselves less stroobl their consumers that hasnt happened. Cable companies have stopped it at times. On the other hand sarah, Netflix Youtube eat up enormous amounts of the broadband spectrum and so why shouldnt they pay more money . Because theyre already paying for carriage of that service. So the way it works is that a content provider that uses a particularly ones that use a large amount of capacity and bandwidth, that content is already being hosted by what we call a content delivery network, a server deep in the network that tend to provides the last mile access, the access from a certain point in the network to your front door and into your building. So these commercial these contractual agreements are already being negotiated within the network and netflix is already paying someone for their high capacity traffic to be carried. So what were essentially looking at is a situation where comcast would then or at t or timewarner would then go to comcast and say hey i know youre already paying a content delivery to host your content and theyre negotiating carriage with me but you know what, i really would like you to pay me one more time so you can reach these customers at the end of my internet line and because of the way that the internet is built there tends to be only one households dont tend ohave multiple subscriptions to the internet within their household, they have one. We have a terminating relationship, if netflix or google or whomever wants to reach the end user they only have one way to do so. Thank you for joining us. Now the latest bombshell, the New York Times reports reports that 100,000 computers in the world have been surreptitiously implanted with spy device he even when the device isnt connected to the internet. Im joined by peter e. Ckerslee. Thank you for joining us. The nsa has its eyes everywhere but this one is straight out of a movie. The conventional wisdom is if your computers off and not connected to the internet youre safe. This is code naw name quantum. How does it work . If you are a bank and you need a superscrewer computer, youre not going oconnect it to the internet. You are going to do that disconnection thing where you unplug from the internet, you do your Bank Calculations off line. Here we have learned that the nsa will sneak a little device into your Office Inside a usb cable maybe and this usb cable will contain a tiny antenna that can broadcast to an nsa station maybe eight miles away and they can hack your computer there. How do they manage to do it to 100,000 computers . It turns out this type of spy activity is getting cheaper. You can go on amazon and buy an sd card called an ifi. You are suddenly going to invisibly undetectably to you, connect to a wifi. We should have realized that these intelligence agencies these spytype people will be pulling fancier version he of these kinds of tricks to break into hundreds of thousands of computers because thats what turns out to be happening. The nsa says its only doing this overseas. Are you confident thats the case . We hear all sorts of cleverly worded denials from the nsa, in this case maybe its overseas or maybe its also happening in the United States. We should also understand that its not just the nsa. Dozens of countries have these intelligence agencies, these spice, and we can be sure that the iranians, the chinese, if russians, the french, theyll be trying to do this too. Do you think the americans are going to care about it . I think what we are seeing here is a big question mark over the relationship between intelligence vaghts which are really their own class of institutions worldwide and the regulation of society, businesses individuals, political activist groups, all of us are potential targets for this kind of spying and i think right now what were seeing is intelligence agencies think its open season and fair game to target and spy on the world citizens. And in fact china and america have apparently been using the technology on each other according to the report but the u. S. Is using it on Mexican Police and mexican cartels, in saudi arabia and india and pakistan. This is clearly an important project for the intelligence community. Shouldnt this have been made known,. Certainly you can think about a leak about what the United States does helps the russians or the chinese or the french if those are the people that the United States is crossing swords with. But you can also slice the question as i sort of did before between the intelligence agencies the spy agencies and the rest of humanity. And i think having transparency and the forecast about what these spy agencies are up to is vital for the rest of us for if health of democracy and open free societies to understand the political threats were taking on from having these spice everywhere. Despite that opinion some of this information had been leaked or at least the information came through Edward Snowdens leak. Do you think this is going ohurt snowdens image in the United States . He doesnt seem to be that unpopular. Recent polls think that a mortgage of americans think hes a whistle blower. But after more of this comes out with the methods of the intelligence community, do you think that will change . I think americans want to know the truth. Edward snowden seems to have told us a lot of things that were going on that we at least didnt know about or at least suspected. I think he brought transparency and light to places where there were shadows and we needed to know what was going on. Peter, thank you for joining us. We are going ohave more on this tomorrow when journalist Glen Greenwald will be a guest, you can tweet in by using hashtag ask greenwald. Gianna. Enabled the rape of thousands of children by pedophile priests, the holy see, using evidence related to abuse cases from around the world, including findings from the grand jury investigations from around the state used the hearing as an encouraging development. We are hoping that finally, that pope francis and that the Church Officials will take action that will actually protect children today and in the future. And in anticipation of tomorrow a spokesperson for the pope said. Translator we have full confidence that a construct itch dialogue will be carried out Going Forward to reach the exact goals the values and what the convention proposes in its different forms. And just todays archdiocese of chicago released to victims attorneys thousands of pages of new documents documenting raises transparency to a new level, it will be helpful we pray for some but painful for many. You can read more at the website, america. Aljazeera. Com. And antonio, those could be released to the public law as early as next week. Its about time that this transparency is taking place. Thank you gianna. Legal team gets ready for a new round, is arod running out of options . And oscar nomination, why it takes big bucks to get in the the number of critics of Alex Rodriguez seemingly grows every day. Called arods regimen, the most potent developed for an athlete than weve ever seen. This week, the 13time allstar, claiming that the union didnt do fuf to help him and that baseball had it in for him. Lets bring in dave zyron, host of edge of sports radio. Joins us from Silver Spring maryland. Dave good to see you. Arod never tested positive, of course neither did lance armstrong. Did he get what he deserved . Well, that all depends on your perspective. If im a yankees fan i absolutely think he got what he deserved because it means i get 25 million off the teams payroll and perhaps getting out from under the 87 million that they still owe him and weighing on the franchise like the boneless elephant in the bronx. To be able to suspend players for as long as the commissioner sees fit im also for it. If i think it needs scorched earth to expunge players from the game. If i think a strong Baseball Players union is a good thing then it rings very, very wrong. First offense should be 50 games, Major League Baseball wanted 211, and he end under with 162. It gets them out from under his contract for a full season. Hes suing baseball, hes suing the union, saying the union didnt do enough for him but now the union has come back and is complaining that baseball is piling on in its attacks on arod. Where does it end . Thats a great question. I tell you if we were charting the winners and losers, the top would be Alex Rodriguez attorneys. They are going to make a fortune. On the one hand, one can understand it because the mlbta and Alex Rodriguez have never truly seen eye to eye. I mean Alex Rodriguez is one that has never supported the union in a meaningful way throughout his career. That being said i think tactically Alex Rodriguez going after the union makes no sense whatsoever. The mlbta, thats the union, has a pulse on this situation. We are sitting back as Alex Rodriguez was going through the agony of last year and now with Major League Baseball going on 60 minutes, spiking the football if you will, piling on bud selig being like hulk hogue an, saying we got em everybody that got the mlbtas ire up. For Alex Rodriguez to go after them now is tactically more ontic. Because of the peds, the performance enhancing drugs, it seems like almost everything is tainted. Whats the solution, should everything be legal, if you do go down that road and say you can take whatever you want, what does that mean for kids . About what to do, i personally think this lies on the margins of this debate not the center of the debate. Because the center is about more and more testing and all that really does is encourage and incentivize more and more sophisticated cheating, more and more masking agents and more and more ways to beat the tests, which more and more finding refuge with people like Anthony Bosch the nondoctor. Prescribingprescribing medicati. Basically treating players like lab rats, thats the only way, or the other way is you have to do a decriminalization program. Have a conversation with experts, about what is technology and that medicine has changed over the years. You have to worry about kids following examples and taking those things at a very young age. I think kids are smarter than that. Do you want to end up like alex . Look at this guy he is a gazillionaire, he dates models and actresses. Isnt that one of the problems . The recent marijuana situation in colorado, it makes it easier to be a controllable substance. I think thats one of the ways to answer. I want to switch topics, i want you to weigh in on what happened yesterday. A federal judge telling the nfl hold your horses on that concussion settlement worth three quarters of a billion dollars, hes concerned theres not enough money there. Now an attorney for the players is saying that he would recommend that a number of players reject the settlement. This is certainly not the kind of thing nfl wants to be hearing as we approach the super bowl. Not at all. It takes a story they thought they had under lock and key before the season and explodes it right when the largest number of people in the United States and the world are tuning into the guam. I think the number of players delinking from the settlement is going to necessarily go anywhere. Judge anita brody, als disease, which is utterly debilitating, and costs a fortunate to manage, the variance of pain is so profound that it creates a real problem in thinking that theres a one size fits all settlement. Its led to all sorts of suicides. Very quick question only have about ten seconds for you. Some of the lawyers that are defending, do you think theres a conflict of interest here . It could give them 112 million. With attorneys theres always a conflict of interest but i trust that these guys have the best interests of the players at heart. How is that for a tensecond answer . Like im running for office. Still ahead, oscar expense, the surprising cost of getting as this years Oscar Nominations are announced todays data dive takes a look at the high price of getting nominated. It comes a lot the awards season. Get in front of oscar nominating committee members. That could mean more than 2 million for a smaller formula, 10 million for bigger movies, all before the nominations are announced. There are screening dvds, sent out, with oscar hopeful, you want to get your film to the right talk shows and magazines, that means paying strategy gists to plot. Yet not to mention your for your consideration ads. And the hollywood reporter. A full page add could run more than 25,000. Big hol take parties where stars of the years top movies could mingle with journalists, hoping that would read to more coverage. Stars need hotel and transportation, it all adds up. Even Foreign Language film campaigns can carry sixfigure price tags. L. A. And new york for a week to consider, that means they have to do what is called fourwalling a theater, meaning they have to buy all the seats within the four walls of the theater, that is a steep cost. Does it pay off . The scarcely seen hurt locker spent a mere 5 million and it won best picture in 2010, beating avatar. Not a bad return on investment. Findin brad meltzer has sold millions of book
