Raids Shut Down 'Dark Web'

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

More than 400 internet sites only accessible via the 'dark web' have been closed down in an international operation to combat cybercrime. We speak to the head of the operation,Troels Oerting, from the European Cyber Crime Centre. Plus, as Russia's currency the rouble continues to fall, what can the country do as it continues to face sanctions over its involvement in eastern Ukraine and falling oil prices? Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, we hear how former East Germany is doing economically. We hear from lifestyle institution, Martha Stewart, about building her brand, and also her time in prison. And, we discuss the week's biggest business stories with Helen Thomas from the Wall Street Journal in London, and David Freedman from The Atlantic in Boston, USA. We are also joined throughout the programme by Colin Peacock, the presenter of Media Watch on Radio New Zealand.
