LOU: INTERNAL E-MAIL SHOW
FACEBOOK CONSIDERED PROFITS BY
SELLING INFORMATION TO COMPANIES
ACCESSING YOUR PERSONAL DATA,
ALSO SUGGESTING THAT FACEBOOK
EMPLOYEES TALKED ABOUT PUSHING
SOME ADVERTISERS TO SPEND MORE
IN RETURN FOR INCREASED ACCESS
TO USER DATA.
JOINING ME NOW TO TAKE UP WHAT
IS GOING ON IN SILICON VALLEY
AND BIG TECH TO TAKE UP FACEBOOK
AND THE COMPANY'S GROWING
STRUGGLES AND THE INCREASED
CYBERTHREATS FROM RUSSIA, FROM
CHINA AND IRAN, FORMER SENIOR
ADVISER IN THE STATE
DEPARTMENT'S ANTITERRORISM
ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, FORMER LAW
ENFORCEMENT ADVISER AND
CYBERSECURITY EXPERT MORGAN
WRIGHT.
GREAT TO SEE YOU.
I WANT TO COMMENT YOU ON YOUR
RECENT OP-ED WHICH YOU SAID,
PROINT BLANK, THAT HIGH-TECH'S
GLOBALISM IS KILLING PAY TREISM
IN THIS COUNTRY.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
LOU: THIS IS RIGHT NOW IT SEEMS
TO ME THE PROSPECTS FOR
REGULATING OUT OF CONTROL
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES WITH HUGE,
HUGE ECONOMIC CONCENTRATION IN
POWER THIS TIME MAY BE RIGHT.
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?
>> LOU, YOU KNOW THE THINGS THAT
LED UP TO IT, ENRON, PRETTY SOON
THE GOVERNMENT SAID WE'RE NOT
GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE AND YOU
GO THROUGH LITIGATION, YOU SUE,
GO THROUGH LITIGATION AND THEN
PRETTY SEEN IT'S LIKE CONGRESS
GOES WE'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS,
WE'RE GOING TO PASS A LAW AND
IT'S GOING TO BE CODIFIED.
AND PEOPLE WENT TO JAIL.
SO WHAT WE'RE GOING TO FIND OUT
IS, I THINK, THIS ISSUE OF
PRIVACY IS, I THINK, IS THE
WATERSHED MOMENT WHERE WE START
LOOKING AT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN
THE EU WITH THE SEVEN COUNTRIES
THAT ARE FILED AGAINST GOOGLE
FOR TRACKING THEM, THE ISSUE OF
PRIVACY, FACEBOOK, CAMBRIDGE AN
LET
ANT
ANALYTICA.
THIS HAS TO COME TO A HEAD AT
SOME TIME.
LOU: IT'S A HELL OF A NOTE WHEN
THE EUROPEANS HAVE MORE
IMPRESSIVE LAWS PROTECTING
CONSUMERS, PROTECTING OUR
PERSONAL DATA THAN DOES THE
UNITED STATES.
IT'S INCREDIBLE TO ME THAT WE
HAVE LAGGED THIS FAR AND GIVEN
HIGH-TECH SUCH A PASS.
I WANT TO JUST TURN TO A
SPECIFIC ISSUE.
AND THAT IS GOOGLE.
HE'S GOING TO BE TALKING
BEFORE.
>> FINALLY.
LOU: WILL BE TALKING TO
CONGRESS.
MEANWHILE HE'S DOING BUSINESS
WITH CHINA.
IT'S AN EXTRAORDINARY MESS.
THERE'S JUST NO CONSTRAINT AND
APPARENTLY NO EFFORT TO REIGN IN
GOOGLE AND ITS PRO-CHINESE
POLICIES WHICH ARE EFFECTIVELY,
THE RESULT IS, ANTI-AMERICAN.
>> AND THAT'S WHY ONE OF THE
REASONS I WROTE THE OP-ED.
MY FATHER WAS A WORLD WAR II
VET, ALSO A VIETNAM VET.
THERE WERE PEOPLE THAT, YOU
KNOW, WE HAD LOST A LOT OF
PEOPLE IN DEFENSE OF FREEDOM TO
FIGHT PEOPLE LIKE WHAT THIGH
CHINA HAS BECOME.
AND WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS WE
LACKED THIS PATRIOTISM NOW --
IT'S OKAY TO HAVE AMERICA FIRST.
WE CAN HAVE A VIEW OF THE WORLD.
BUT IN THE OP-ED I WROTE AND THE
E SEARCH
RESEARCH I DID, 47% OF THE
CEOs BELIEVE IN GLOBALISM.
THEY BELIEVE THE WORLD SHOULD
PROFIT FIRST AND BE TAKEN CARE
OF BEFORE THE UNITED STATES.
BUT YET THEY BUILT THEIR
BUSINESSES ON THE OPPORTUNITIES
THAT CAME FROM THE UNITED
STATES.
LOU: THAT'S RIGHT.
>> AND I THINK GOOGLE IS OPENING
UP THE AI, THE ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE CENTER IN SHANGHAI,
IT'S GOING TO BE OOH VIBRANT
PLACE NP IN CHINA, NOTHING GETS
BUILT THERE THAT DOESN'T GET
SHARED WITH THE MILITARY.
YET THEY TURNED OUR MILITARY
DOWN AND THREW THEM TO THE CURB
ON USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
TO SAVE SOLDIER'S LIVES AND
OTHER CIVILIANS LIVES.
AND WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE ON THAT.
THEY WERE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT
THE PROJECT THAN THE CENTERS
SEARCH ENGINE THAT GOOGLE IS
DEFENDING STILL TO THIS DAY.
SAYING THEY'RE NOT BUILDING IT
BUT THEY HAVEN'T THROWN TIGHT
THE CURB YET EITHER.
LOU: AND MEANWHILE WE'RE
WATCHING THE CHINESE COMPANIES
CONTINUE THEIR ADVANCEMENTS
HERE.
THE FRONT COMPANIES CARRYING OUT
ESPIONAGE.
20% OF PLACES RESERVED FOR
FOREIGN STUDENTS IN OUR
UNIVERSITIES.
YOU CAN MARK IT ANY WAY YOU
WANT, IT IS A ZERO SUM GAME.
THAT MEANS 20% OF THOSE SEATS
DIDN'T GO TO AN AMERICAN STUDENT
ANT THERE IS NO DISCUSSION
WHATSOEVER, NO PUBLIC POLICY
ABOUT WHAT HAS OCCURRED BY MOST
OF THESE UNIVERSITIES THAT ARE
LEFT WING DRIVEN.
THEY'RE LEFT-WING INDOCTRINATION
CENTERS AND WE'RE LOOKING AT
STATISTICS NOW AND SURVEYS
SHOWING THE MILLENNIAL
GENERATION IS THE PRODUCT OF
THAT INDOCTRINATION PROCESS.
AND THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND OUR
EDUCATION.
>> YEAH.
DURING A CONGRESSIONAL HEARING
FBI DIRECTOR WRAY TALKED ABOUT
THE CON FEW ISSUES INSTITUTES.
THIS IS FOR THEM TO COMMIT E PEA
THANKING.
60% OF THE STUDENTS IN THE U.S.
NOW ARE CHINESE.
WE HAVE NEM IN SENSITIVE
PROGRAMS, GETTING PHDs IN
THINGS AROUND MATERIAL AND
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
IT'S GOING BACK TO CHINA.
IF YOU WANT TO DO BUSINESS IN
CHINA, YOU HAVE TO PLAY BY THEIR
RULES.
I THINK WE OUGHT TO DO THE SAME
THING TO THE OTHER CHINESE
COMPANIES WHO WANT TO DO STUFF
IN THE UNITED STATES.
LOU: AND THIS PRT RELENTED WITH
PRESIDENT XI.
>> UNFORTUNATELY HE DID.
LOU: AND THAT'S GOT TO BE
REVERSED TOO.
WHAT IS HAPPENING IS JUST
UNTHINKABLE THAT WE'RE LETTING
THIS HAPPEN TO THIS GREAT
COUNTRY.
AND THIS PRESIDENT IS
RESPONSIBLE FOR DRIVING THESE
POLICIES THAT WILL PRESERVE THE
REPUBLIC ONE HOPES.
MORGAN WRIGHT, GOOD TO HAVE YOU
WITH US.
AND I THINK IT SHOULD BE VERY
CLEAR TO ALL WHY IT IS THAT THE
ESTABLISHMENT THE REPRESENTED BY
THE LEADERSHIP OF THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY, THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, WHY
WALL STREET, THE KOCH BROTHERS
ARE HAVING A FIT AS THIS
PRESIDENT'S POLICIES MOVE US
FORWARD.
THEY CAN'T STAND IT BECAUSE THEY
KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
