news from berlin tonight google's searching for a solution to sexual harassment thousands of google employees around the world staged a walkout today in protest of the company's treatment of women it comes amid reports of harassment implicating several executives managers also coming up a major new study says the earth's oceans are warming faster than previously thought which could be disastrous for the world's ice sheets coral reefs and all sorts of marine life plus divers in indonesia find one of the black boxes from the plane that crashed on monday just minutes after taking off from jakarta investigators hope that it will help to explain the tragedy that claimed the lives of nearly two hundred people. i burned off it's good to have you with us it is a search result that google would rather us not see google employees around the world have walked off the job today protesting what they see as the tech giants lenient treatment of executives accused of sexual misconduct employees staged walkouts in new york dublin london tokyo in singapore the last week the c.e.o. of google disclosed that the

you had experiences at stanford, but did this activism catch you off guard a google? -- at google? john: you expect students to be engaged in this kind of activity. it is less common among employees. i think google encourages people to participate and help shape a great work environment. >> what can you do? john: listen. that is the first thing. you have to listen. that is one of the things i learned at stanford, just listen. sometimes where there is smoke, there is a little fire. if you listen early you keep it , a small fire rather than let it get out of control. >> there were news reports about alleged coverups, payoffs of sexual misconduct at alphabet. sundar pichai wrote a note to the company saying these were hard reports to read and pledging the company will do things differently. is alphabet a different company than it was three years ago? john: i can't comment on the individual details of the reports, but there is a different policy in place. it has been reviewed by the board. the board gets periodic reports on actions taken under that policy. we concluded that is somethin

it is a big move by google. google is a leader in silicon valley when it comes to these things, so it is a big step. emily: it is something uber and lyft have done. the google employees have a long list of demands. is this going to be enough to quell the discontent and anger about how google has handled these cases over the years? >> this is a good start. having the ability to take a company to court gives employees with grievances a huge amount of leverage. there are other types of cases that i think are still going to be covered by the arbitration. it is not like they are saying you can take google to court if you feel you have been discriminated against racially, for instance. so there is that. the other thing is the culture of the company. there are a lot of examples of senior executives dating subordinates, people who still work at the company, and i think this overall cultural question still needs to be resolved, and probably won't be resolved soon. emily: right, google says it has rules around that. you a

google employees in singapore and tokyo as well as in cities in the u.s. including new york and the google alphabet headquarters in california also walked out one of the key demands of the workout is an end to forced to arbitration which is used to stop complainants from suing or going public demonstrations come after a new york times report allege that google is still paying a ninety million dollar golden parachute to a senior employee who was dismissed for sexual misconduct in twenty fourteen. let's bring in our man on wall street and scored against what do investors make of much of the work force of a global company just walking off the job. now well i mean we see overall a pretty tight labor market and we also see a fight for talent specially in the id industry also a wall street is on the hunt more and more for. people meaning that employees at a company like google do have certain leverage and it's not the first controversy that we're seeing result of google this a year earlier they had to pull back from a contract with the pentagon where actually go

google if there is a modern man god who sees everything google seizure intentions and how those are likely translated into actions these are organizations know who you are and connected with with our feelings and intentions with the brightest and darkest corners of our lives sumac help us figure out when these four companies that make the world a better place but yet you still refer to them as the four horsemen referring to the apocalypse's be mac we are net gainers from fossil fuels and net gainers but that doesn't mean we don't have an open conversation but some of that downside of what should be done we decided to regulate companies there should be emission standards and we have decided as a society we know whether worship at the altar and then but that key component of a capitalism but with that same scrutiny and regulation applied to others we would not have tolerated a lot of the behavior taken place so the four horsemen is cautionary but that doesn't mean we shouldn't have an open and honest conversation on the dat - - on the downside. >> host: at the same time you call for them? we

google, youtube and maybe google cloud. the answer to all this is want to maintain our incredible economic with hiring and they do create a tremendous amount of innovation in china's wealth and create jobs and largest employer recruiter out of my class at nyu is amazon. these are economic stars and support that we have building a system in young people have something to inspire and are fantastic in terms of innovation. my feeling is we would start the party down early and keep it going or by breaking the company's up but when we broke up my fell in the 80s we unleashed a torrent of 30 years of shareholder and stakeholder growth in optics and fiber and cell phones and that would likely would not happen because the technologies were lying dormant in bell labs. imagine the echo system with apple, amazon, facebook and google and imagine another echo system. acco, itunes, amazon, aws, amazon settlement, facebook, et cetera. [inaudible converstations] app, messenger, google, youtube which echo system is more hiring and more opera

google's mantra in the early days is don't be evil. is this a company that because of its size or because of tremendous success and wealth has its loss in terms of core values? >> this is definitely a big screw up in terms of public relations and the decisions they made. what's in that story really looks bad. that's why you see so much reaction to it. whether or not google is going to learn from this is going to be fascinating. now that it's so public and we had thousands of people on the streets about it, google will have to say something about it. maybe they will follow-through and follow the demands. it will be interesting to see. >> do you think they might make a change? people are really calling for things to be different. >> silicon valley likes to say it's better than a lot of other industries and it's much more socially minded. today we saw a lot of companies in silicon valley sign on to a letter against donald trump's possible movements against transgender people. we see a lot of socially aware things happening. maybe it will

you have google and you have facebook. if you're a consumer, ultimately to resist amazon is feudal because amazon has been able to reinvent -- 100 cents on the consumer and has unparalleled selection and movies through amazon prime videos. as a result it has become almost impossible to compete with amazon. amazon can look at a company and perform a jedi mind trick and go into drugs and pharmaceutical and you see that shed tens of billions of dollars before amazon has gone into that sector. it means the company has become too powerful. so, these companies, in my view, just too concentrated have not done anything wrong. it is not mean they are good or bad. they are what they are and that is they have monopoly like power. the way to oxygenate the marketplaces to break them up. just as republican teddy roosevelt did with the railroads. host: what is the key all the rhythm? dr. galloway: so, i think it is eliminating to kind of breakdown what are the core components and andts our culture competencies of companies that has a sho

brad: one eu commission rule is google is charging for makers to use the play store and google apps. how does that affect google's business in europe? john: we don't know yet. clearly it's a change. we thought we were doing the world a favor, creating a free operating system. brad: how does that impact the ecosystem? john: a big concern for google was that it would be forked. instead of getting one system, we would be getting lots of versions of android, which would defeat the value of the ecosystem. brad: more of a risk in china? john: it could happen in other places. ? brad: do you think there has been a failure of leadership in silicon valley? john: i think there's been a failure to anticipate some of the consequences. ♪ brad: i know it's been less than a year since you took over as chairman of alphabet, but do you think at all about what you want your legacy at google to be? john: we'd like the company to continue to deliver high value to users. my mindset about any leadership role is that it's a service role. you serve the employees, shareholders, the community, and you serve

two or three google, google youtube, and google cloud. we want them to maintain their incredible economic velocity. they create tremendous amounts of innovation, tremendous wealth, they create jobs. the largest recruiter out of my class at nyu's amazon. these are economic stars. it is important that we have billionaires. it is important junk people have something to aspire to. they are fantastic in terms of innovation. , we wouldn'though but wee party down early keep it going by breaking these companies up. l, wewe broke up ma bel unleashed 30 years of growth in fiber and optic and cell phones that likely would not have happened because a lot of these technologies were lying dormant in bell labs. imagine two systems, the current apple,d another system, itunes, amazon, aws, amazon fulfillment, facebook, instagram, whatsapp, messenger, youtube. which ecosystem has more hiring, more job creation, a broader tax base, more startups? which ecosystem will raise its hand and say to advertisers, we nosure there will be objectionable content and ma

google made 214. and amazon made 91 in the last two years in the last year that's a lot of companies to buy. they are absorbing any technology they have people looking for new technologies and absorb them inevitably, these companies get too big. i mean, we have been through this with the robert barrons, previous century, went through it breaking up conglomerates i am not in favor of it, but if something is absorbing too much of our business system, i think you have to look at it carefully. i think congress is going to certainly look at it you can break it up, google would be easy to take youtube, do something else with it. instagram out of something >> what do you view as fundamentally important as a driver in technology now you talked about the stocks that are up, that are down, apple up 30 plus% f percent for the year. netflix more than that, 53%. it is not as if the sky is falling. is it credit cards on file and ability to have loyal paying customers versus relying on an advertising market when it

of google that is going to be almost two google's one to china one for the rest of the world now whether those employees avenge they will work on it i can't give you that answer but i do know that's a very legitimate concern and that is going to affect the stock i think between now and the end of the year for the fine stocks and of course that does not include microsoft because there's no end in sighing i think for most of the tech stocks so it's going to be bouncing with a lot of volatility to the end of the year many factors and one of them of course is including lost lots of things a sitting on the shelf at apple there hasn't been innovation there for a while with regard to microsoft i would say the chinese issue is a different one you can actually refer to it as fast you know as steve balmer has said the majority of operating systems in china over ninety percent are operating on microsoft operating systems where they go any purchased about one percent of that ninety percent so it's fundamentally staff to not as affected stock as well very interesting danielle i mean two things that m

i'd like to see google broken up into possibly two or three companies, google, google youtube and maybe google cloud. the answer is we want to maintain their incredible economic velocity, they're hiring, they do create tremendous amounts of innovation. tremendous wealth. they do create jobs for the largest employer recruiter at my class at nyu is amazon. these are economic starts. it's important we have billionaires. it's important young people at something to aspire to. they are fantastic in terms of innovation. my feeling is we wouldn't shut the party down early. we would keep it going by breaking these companies. when we broke up ma bell in the '80s we unleashed a torrent of 30 30 years of shareholder and stakeholder growth in fiber and optic and cell phones that likely would not happen because a lot of these technologies were lying dormant in bell labs. imagine two systems, the current one and imagine another ecosystem, apple, itunes, amazon, aws, amazon fulfillment, facebook, instagram, whatsapp, messenger, google, youtube which echo system has more hiring? which has more job creat

brad: where does google go from here? they are waiting for some license to introduce public -- operation dragonfly. if they were to get a permission to operate in china, considering the blowback and the pr punishment, do they want to do that? isaac: i would guess somewhere there is a spreadsheet about projected revenues not only for china but a host of other projects they have versus the pr damage, employ url, the people who publicly quit to protest this. i would guess the potential games financial are much higher than losses. i think google is going to say unfortunately we will take a hit of our reputation. we will feel with the trump administration criticizing this. if we can go in, we will do it. brad: do you think they are still going forward? mark: there was a letter to senators saying we feel like we will be behind. china is marketing ahead, and part of this project, even if we never launched it is a way to keep up with the insertion. google looks at tencent and alibaba, the companies in china, and how they are usin

>> reporter: google has over 70 offices in 50 countries. today, there were walkouts in at least 47 locations. this is new york city, where thousands of employees marched in manhattan and gathered for speeches. the google walkout twitter account posted this picture. and this is cambridge, massachusetts. hundreds there streamed out of their kendall square office to protest the company's treatment of women. in london, many googlers stayed indoors to share their stories, but some braved the wet weather to demand a change in their corporate culture. >> we're walking out in support of those who have been harassed anywhere in the workplace. and to ensure that the perpetrators are not rewarded. >> a few of those snapshots from around the world. this is zurich, switzerland. and this is dublin, ireland where hundreds of emmoyees walked out united in protest. and unity is something google leaders will have to restore with their 94,000 employees around the world. dan and ama? >> kristen, thank you. >>> stock in dpogoogle's compan alphabet dropped a hal

one of them is dedicating money, auditing, from outside the google because fear, google's compliance with privacy policies. >> the appearance problem here, which has happen in many cases, is symptomatic of a broader question, which is why is it not always reasonable, more reasonable in a situation, which is a difficult one, to try to get the money to injured parties, either through pro rata distribution or some kind of lottery system. imperfect or strange as that may be, it seems to me potentially less strange or why isn't it less strange than giving it to people who weren't injured, who have affiliations with the council, and to come in many cases, don't need the money? >> in terms of what the standard is, yes, absolutely the priority is to give the individual class members money. and only when it proves infeasible to do that can he go to a cy pres result. in this case, the district court looked and said, the costs to do claims processing, costs due to claims forms, costs to do distribution and said -- >> how about a lottery? >> it doesn't help much. first, you have to identify the

will google change its way? we mentioned sundar pichai and here's what he had to say. >> we're committed to doing better and listening to employees. >> that's pichai tonight in new york where he's appearing at "the new york times" deal book conference. >> well, it wasn't just a national walkout, it was a worldwide one. this heat map shows people around the globe talking about it, with the hashtag google walkout. the red and dark blue spots the most active areas. that includes the bay area, seattle, new york city and london. and take a look at some of the tweets from around the world. dave lee bbc posted this picture of the google's office in singapore. you can see a couple hundred people gathered here. akmentolga tweeted this picture of the google's headquarters in london. employees on their phones outside the google headquarters there. and shenanigan.xposted this picture showing all of the employees standing out in the freezing cold to show their solidarity. and this photo from zurich, someone holding up a sign

at google, we think it is an important problem and that google has a responsibility to be pa rt of google has a responsibility to be part of the solution. when people come to google, they expect answers and so we hope that we can through technology and through partnerships with journalists and others, technology and through partnerships withjournalists and others, that technology and through partnerships with journalists and others, that we can provide high—quality, authoritative content when they come to us for information. twitter's mission is to serve the public. people come to twitter to find out what is going on and to tell the world what is happening. if we could bea world what is happening. if we could be a source of quality information for them, then they will stop using the product so it is incredibly important for us as a platform but also for us to recognise the impact of this type of news out in the world. are all of you part of the problem or part of the solution? mark zuckerberg admitted to congress that he had been slow to respond to fa ke that he had been slow to respond

alledge attack of google's servers in china. jason: now to the source code of google? max: the chinese intelligence agencies were allegedly looking for information about dissidents. google has been trying to protect those people. as he reports, there was a secret meeting and a place known as helm's deep. if you are a lord of the rings fan, you will get the reference to it is a last bastion for humanity. jason: where the eye of sauron cannot reach. carol: you guys are such nerds. max: i hope you're not mangling that. there was this big argument. the two main sides, what -- one was led by eric schmidt, the ceo who was in favor of google in gauging globally. the other side was sergei brin. sergei brin was born in the soviet union. he had very strong feelings about censorship. his position ultimately won out. google left china. that is where things have stood for the last eight years. carol: 2016, they start trickling back in? max: there were lots of little attempt happening even before that. the big effort which includes this thing called dragonfly started in 2016. the ma

most andrade phones already have the google -- android fans already have the google assista assistant. >> do you need anything? >> reporter: the feature also works with the doorbell. if i push this button, it will set off every speaker in the whole house. >> ah -- >> reporter: google and amazon both think their speakers are perfect for kids. >> i think every part of this has to do with the fact that it's voice, right. my 5-year-old can't read yet, but he can talk to the google home and ask for music or games. >> reporter: google's partnered with nickelodeon. >> set the alarm -- >> reporter: to help get your kids out of bed. ♪ there's also storytime. >> it can read aloud to your child, and the google home smart speakers will enhance it with music and sound, and it makes storytime magical and delightful. >> reporter: it works with about ten books now including one all about a young girl who's an engineer. >> i need the help of a computer like you, deedee. how do i program you to count stars? >> reporter: whether she interrupts or i interrupt, google is patient and waits for me? >> it'

there is a push among employees, especially at google to have more say the way google acts. >> the google walkout was a water shed moment for silicon valley and now for the ceo's response, we'll see if it has any other ripple effects. ripple effects. >>> the time is 4:47, the agency that runs muni is spieth speeding up the plans to buy more trains, they agreed it buy new trains and having them run in the next decade. they hope to speed up the purchase orders and deliveries, they're trying to ease overcrowding at the metro rail lines. >> they're teenagers, it jumped # 7% among 77% among high schools and 57% among middle school students, they're going to ban them in certain stores around the country. minors will be not be allowed inside. they'll require age verification measures for online sales. >>> and there's smoke in the air, as soon as you step outside, you'll smell it. sal is watching what's happening on the roads right now. >>> that's right. visibility may not be good, if it's mixed in with fog, i don't see fog on our cameras, i see smoke, lets go out and take a look at e on the alta

what is your take, whether facebook or google going back to china? >> you have made all the right points which is it is also impossible to operate a truly free and expression platform of any kind given the censorship requirements of the chinese government. it is clear certain data information will be blocked from chinese users and not have a full understanding of the world. given data localization requirements put on businesses in china, it is hard to say the company would protect the privacy of the users with complete certainty against government intrusions given it will be located in the country. you have already made a great point that since they are blocked now, but for any company doing business in china, they have to look at what the risks are, the human risks to their end-users should their data be exposed, express contrary opinion, express behavior that seems unpopular. they are potentially putting lives at risk. emily: sundar pichai has pushed back on those points. he said google does operate in other countries where there is censorship and

google's boss said... i think it's a moment to be relished, and it's because women have normally had to do this on their own, take their own case, make their own complaint or suffer in silence, or have an nda, you know, signing a gagging order. and suddenly women are coming together and saying, our power is in doing this collectively. that's what's going to make the change. a global movement which big tech did so much to create is belatedly turning on silicon valley's proudest names. amol rajan, bbc news. well, a little earlier i spoke to global business analyst ryan patel who's based in los angeles about the action google employees are taking. i think this is more than just a protest. i think it is a push to other countries, specifically in the tech world, for google to champion this issue, not just tech world, for google to champion this issue, notjust to fix it, but to make an impact. so all its employees and those that are consumers can see there is more to this. so other tech companies could face a si

google has some troubles. i don't know what all of those troubles are, internal or otherwise but just looking at the stock, you can tell the stock has troubles. charles: here's my thesis. i watched amazon report. when the conference call began, the stock dropped five bucks as they talked about how badly they were going to do, how much money they had to spend. as the call went on, the maturation of mark zuckerberg took the stock up 11 points, a $38 billion reversal to the upside. google needs that kind of message of management, of leadership. >> this is an industry that we talked earlier about what could happen if you have the dems versus the republicans control. this is an industry, social media, that could get a lot of focus and attention in washington, d.c. and i think that's weighing on them as well. >> really quickly, here's what you want to see tonight. look for apple up at all. anything apple is up, five cents, ten cents, a dollar. apple is a buy. charles: what could be higher? >> good earnings, a good c

they were double the number of google employees protesting google's work for the pentagon. i am impressed any google employees are bold enough to protest what's going on in chain al. they don't seem to care about what google is doing to americans, stealing their privacy. liz: i'm look at the headline, 500 google workers sign a letter saying yes google build that censored search engine for china. it's pretty striking what's going on there. >> that's 500 saying yes do it. 500 people who have questionable moral judgment. i don't think it's fair to say there are many of them who support it. liz: what do you think of google going ahead with this censored search engine. >> i think it's awful. china uses data to prevent people from flying, to put people into cams and prevent them from getting jobs it's outrageous any american company would participate in that. they are doing it for the unholy dollar. liz: do you think facebook jumped a shark in terms of its credibility? >> it looks like the consideration of charging for the data in this story is from 2012 to 2014. they said they d
