cory: google is firing back with two new phones. ♪ cory: i'm cory johnson, in for emily chang, and this is "bloomberg west." verizon and aol creating "go 90," but can they really compete with vine and snapchat? thea is counting on model x to hit its goal of 50,000 vehicles. and amazon takes a page out of uber's playbook. they are providing new services. now to our lead -- google trying to grab the spotlight back from apple. they unveiled two new smartphones to go head-to-head with the iphone, the nexus which uses the latest version of android called marshmallow. it has all the bells and whistles. we are joined by brad stone. what did you see? brad: as you know, google supports thousands of different devices for phones, tablets, laptop, but today was about the flagship. front and center were the two nexus phones. both run the latest software. they have a fingerprint sensor on the back. these are nexus devices, so google does not sell them via wireless carriers. a large one starts at $499. they are expensive and the question is who are these for? are they reference designs for other

twitter, addressing the possibility that twitter sells to a bigger company like google or facebook. i sat down with lowercase capital's billionaire founder chris sacca just days before twitter's ceo dick costolo announced he was stepping down. thank you so much for being here. i hope you don't mind me calling you brash. chris: that's probably accurate. emily: you just released a 8500-word missive about twitter. about what twitter can be. before we cut to an ad of a medicare sponsored scooter, what is twitter's future? chris: 8500 words sounds like a term paper. but i had been invested in twitter since the first time anyone could be invested. i have been a user of twitter since 2006. i have been obsessed. it is part of my business. there have been more than one billion people who have tried it and not stuck around. twitter needs to be easier and less intimidating for these people. emily: what has been the reaction from twitter? have you heard from dick? chris: no, i haven't heard from dick since i posted that. to be clear, i don't talk to dick that frequently anyway. we are pals. it is

flying plane? what if the robot is flying the plane? i literally googled "flying robot" and the first result was drone. i googled drone, and the first result was autopilot. i said kids, we are going to build a lego autopilot. they said, all right, one last go. we sat together around the table and put together the bits of plastic, the sensors, the processors, and stuck it in the plane. the next weekend, we flew it and it almost flew. the kids lost interest. i went down the rabbit hole. emily: what year was this? chris: 2007. emily: this was before drones were cool. chris: well, it was before drones were available to regular people. so there were military drones, but something had happened. in that moment, i got chills. it should not be possible for a dad and his kids to build a drone on the dining room table with toy parts. this was a moment -- 2007 turned out to be the key year. so this hardware renaissance that you have heard is all started in 2007. the guts of the smartphones -- the chips, the processors, they were being made in the millions. the reason regular people were abl

even launched the career of justin bieber. today, youtube, now owned by google, has more than 1 billion users, uploading 300 hours of video every minute. it all started a decade ago with a trip to the zoo. and one of the founders says he is not quite done changing the way we are entertained. joining me today on "studio 1.0," youtube cofounder and former ceo, chad hurley. chad, thank you so much for being here. it is so great to have you. chad: thanks for having me. emily: in 2005, you activated the url, youtube.com, right? chad: on valentine's day. emily: on valentine's day. chad: so romantic. emily: describe the last 10 years. chad: for me, it has surpassed all of my expectations. we were really simply trying to solve a problem for ourselves and our friends. how do you share videos that were sitting on your desktop? and despite observing our own problems and coming up with a simple way to re-encode these videos and allow people to share these videos on the web, it kind of unlocked the potential for everybody else. emily: the very first video on youtube really was one of you guy

things go well. is google's biggest challenge? we have more from my interview with bill gurley. and google gets involved with europe forced refugee crisis in decades. ♪ emily: it is time for the daily by. $11 million.r is the amount that google is aiming to raise and a donation matching campaign to a refugees flooding into europe. google is matching the first $5.5 million worth of donations made to the google.com/refugee relief. europe is facing its worst crisis since world war ii driven by civil war in syria, continued violence across afghanistan, iraq and libya. donations go to doctors without borders and save the children. google, bill gurley of benchmark capital talk to me about what he's these is the biggest threat to google's search business. bill: you start your searches with amazon with prime check. the second thing you do if that doesn't work is unchecked crime. then if that doesn't work you go to google. this is a reversal. google has become the starting point to the search of last resort. that is powerful. amazon threatens a much broader segment of google's search traff

if google did it? and let me say, it wouldn't be google, it would be facebook, so then it's fine and you can answer it. mark zuckerberg decides i'm going to start a new app, it's going to be called open planet, and i'll collect all of the current surveillance camera data in the world and broadcast it live on facebook and also encourage people to broadcast live from their phones, allowing, say, ahmed, to follow me 24/7 with his iphone and broadcast that 24/7 on the internet. he would say, check up on your friends and learn cool stuff and whatever. if that could be done, obviously the fourth amendment does not apply to google and facebook, even though google and facebook arguably have more power over privacy and free speech than any king, or president, or justice, under current statutory law. and you're telling us about the complicated debates in congress. could facebook broadcast on its own, private, 24/7 camera feeds that would allow 24/7 tracking of anyone in the world? >> so i think part of this would depend -- i can't envision a scenario where a large technology company would put
