juice rap news - rn15: big brother is wwwatching you lyrics
[robert foster]
welcome back, netizens, to this newest edition in
juice media’s series of rap news journalism with me, robert foster:
this evening we’re actively delving in depth
to facts which affect all of us who dwell on this internet and
we’ve got to give a special welcome to all the ladies and a-gents
from the nsa, asio, mi5: glad you’re listening in;
because today’s show is
all about surveillance and how it’s spreading from the streets into our modems
as we speak, laws are being tacitly written in
to implement ways of controlling the expanse of this internet
to keep us safe, we’re told; but from whom?
and will this place ever be the same if these plans go through?
to find out, we connect with our first guest to comment on the matter
we’re live at the pentopticon with general baxter
general
[general baxter]
son!
[robert foster]
good to have you back again with us
explain why the state is spying on us?
[general baxter]
my fellow oceanians
as you know, we’ve always been at war with eurasia…
or is it eastasia? either way, it’s war and we need division to wage it!
but now the proles are connecting online byp-ssing these
illusory divisions of race, religion and nationality
[robert foster]
sounds grand to me…
[general baxter]
it’s a catastrophe!
centuries of hard work are being undone, profits are vanishing
and it’s due to the internet, it’s empowering humanity
we need to get this snafu under control rapidly
[robert foster]
how?
[general baxter]
behold the latest weapon in the war of terror
our greatest invention since 9/11
guaranteed to keep us free and safe forever
i give you the surveillance state, ladies and generals
our secret wires log your key style
monitor every single number on your speed dial
rewind straight to your position with facial recognition
and pinpoint you within point oh-three of a mile!
we’ve put eyes everywhere without consulting you
keeping you safe, whether or not you want us to
soon there’ll be no freedoms left for threatening
then we’ll have won the war! take that terrorism!
[robert foster]
brilliant, thank you general, we now interview
our resident guru, terence moonseed, for a different view
[terence moonseed]
greetings
[robert foster]
how does this situation look?
[terence moonseed]
i have one word for you, robert: doubleplusungood!
the world populace of seven point four billion are all heading in
the direction of orwellian totalitarian oblivion
my voice is ho-rs- yelling about stellar winds cold chilling ’em
and trapwire weaving through the world wide web we all dwelling in
face it: the all-seeing eye’s in all of our facebooks like a virus
and in these eye-phones, with siri, or should i say “iris”
and next in line is rfid devices and mind chips
triggered by chemtrails the planes spray the sky with
this time it’s too far: check out the base they’re building in utah
where they’ll be storing all you data for over a century; it’s fubar!
and under the outback is an entire tunnel of wires
an echelon base called pine gap, to hijack our mother gaia
[general baxter]
hey, maybe your mother’s g-yer!
[terence moonseed]
boo hoo!
why don’t you just k!ll yourself like most of your troops do!
[general baxter]
that’s it, now you’re on the cast iron list
[robert foster]
hang on, general, why weren’t we informed about this?
[general baxter]
sorry we didn’t tell you about our grand plan before
it was meant to be a surprise, under wraps and in store
but some spoilsports had to go and ruin it for all
by blowing whistles, in spite of the d-mn law
[terence moonseed]
bill binney and thomas drake are trailblazers for leaking these tactics
[general baxter]
hey, civil-liberty f-gtivists… err, activists:
this is all legal: anything we do now actually is!
[robert foster]
how did…
[general baxter]
you can’t question my authorit-ah, thanks to this
[terence moonseed]
and that shit’s global, people! in australia it’s now legal
for the government to store all sms’s, searches and emails…
australians, it’s taking place under your nose
unless you wake up, all your data are belong to asio
[general baxter]
come on! everyone knows: you can trust the government now
if you’ve got nothing to hide, you got nothing to worry about
[terence moonseed]
that might be the case with things that are happening now
because most people agree with most of the laws that are being handed down
but once the illuminati reveal their agenda for you
this surveillance will enforce laws you no longer consent to
but by then it’ll be too late to protest too
and anything you’ve ever said, typed or browsed can and will be used against you
[robert foster]
i’m confused, so what should we do then?
[terence moonseed]
what should we do? nothing! this is all an illusion
it’s just a ride, a delusion, the matrix, the maya deceiving us
[general baxter]
ah, you hippies really make our job so much easier…
[robert foster]
sorry to interrupt but we’re picking up
a signal from beyond the space-time continuum
quick, switch on the juice channelling portal…..
wait, is that…… george orwell?!
[george orwell]
good day to you
[robert foster]
wow …what do we owe this honour to?
[george orwell]
i tried to warn you noobs, but i see you are actually fools
or else you thought this was an instruction manual
[robert foster]
yes, ahem… so can you advise us? what would you have us do?
[george orwell]
an open and universal internet is the most effective tool you have
to address the issues that afflict the world at hand
therefore, protecting it is the most essential task that stands
before your generation
[robert foster]
i think i understand…
[george orwell]
hush, man
you must not lose the internet. heed this mantra:
who controls the internet, controls the data
and who controls the data, controls the future
[robert foster]
we’re losing you
[george orwell]
i leave you with a tool to use…
[robert foster]
an onion?
[george orwell]
don’t be simple, robert, this is but a simile
it stands for ‘tor’
[robert foster]
tor?
[george orwell]
google it! it’s for anonymity:
this onion router open network helps considerably against tyranny
but its abilities only work if all you f*ckers use it consistently
and even if you don’t use it, run it so its force swells
[robert foster]
thanks, mr. orwell
[george orwell]
from now on call me: george tor-well
if we’d had such tools when i wrote this, well
it would’ve been so much simpler to tell big brother to go f*ck himself
the motherf*cking, c*cksucking piece of sh[…]
[robert foster]
thanks, george torwell, for manifesting direct from this
memory hole of history, to impress on us these messages
we’re told we need safety; which is precious, yes
but can a society that can enforce all its laws ever progress?
hindsight shows that many figures guilty of “thought-crime”
turned out to be luminaries and heroes, before their time
but if a surveillance state had reigned then in this form and design
just think of all the progress we may’ve all been denied:
could lobbies for women’s or g-y rights have appeared and thrived
would revolutionary ideals have materialised
would science have pioneered or even survived
if every word had been monitored by thought police and spies?
big brother brings chilling effects, freezing our collective hopes
he doesn’t protect our safety, but protects the status quo
and threatens this internet, the one channel yet uncontrolled
whose openness we are now called upon to effect and uphold
