Camera's dial

Summary: A little poem about digital privacy

TECHNICALLY you're unknown But we recognise your phone Your ID, your tracker, an RFID emulator

Your face is unique At least unique among a dozen When the dataset is a million Our classifier goes beyond the horizon

The state loves you Protects you and cares for you Love it back by taking down that mask

My lives matter Mask you say? Oh, yeah, a mask Just don't wear a hat Because then you "go dark"

Surveillance is security Security is surveillance For the state loves you Like Orange Trump and Pence

Do your part We shall do ours JEDI for Pentagon The assassination Microsoft powers ⬆
