[The video, when it begins, is on a loop: three minute segments of anonymous space, with a steady stream of white noise.
The white noise continues until, eventually, it is broken by a voice thick with electronic distortion.]
Hello, imPorts.
The natives here are more than happy to believe that their government is looking out for their best interest. The same cannot be said for us, the imPorts: we who were dragged here from our homes, assigned houses, powers, jobs. Categorized, classified, tracked, yes, and monitored, paid off within a meager system of incentivization and reward, motivated by our own complacency to both sit down and shut up. From the dawn of imPort history it has been left up to us, the imPorts, to figure out this whole new life beneath these new and foreign stars. And does the government care? No. Not as long as you follow their rules. Do they care about our best interests? No. They only care that we abide by their rules.
We are the Constellation, and we are here to tell you that we do not believe in these rules. We have been hard at work figuring out our new lives, for you. And we have found that while we were busy not trusting the government--they have been just as busy not trusting us.
We, the imPorts, are not favored children. We, the imPorts, are not cherished heroes. We are the ones who are watched, always, by the most fixed and sleepless and critical of eyes.
We have a list, imPorts, a list that we are leaking to you now, live, for your perusal and your understanding.
Fuu Hououji. Commander Shepherd. Lucifer. Jacob Taylor. L'Arachel. Daisy Johnson. Count Dooku. The Doctor.
This, fellow imPorts, is a watch list. A list of your brothers and sisters who the government deemed watchworthy. People of interest. Some of them are still with us. Some of them are gone. And whether or not any of these people are worthily deemed dangerous, we want you, the people, to know: this is what happens when you go against the grain. Labeled as agents opposed. Granted their freedom under secret scrutiny. Catch, and tag, and release.
To those who will, inevitably, dismiss this list as inconsequential: stay tuned. This is not the only list.
And this will not be our one and only release to you, our public.
Remember: the only power that we have, imPorts, is the power that we give to ourselves. The only limits to that power are the limits that we allow. Do not forget this. Consider yourselves warned.
[The video of space continues for another minute after the voice ends. The volume of the white noise increases until it is, abruptly, cut off with a burst of static.]
[as per last year's watch list.]

ANON TEXT FOREVER how about that
suffice to say that you have been active on this network for less than a month
you posses the archival capability to look back and see what has happened to this country and your fellow imPorts.
before you dismiss potential enemies, we suggest you conduct some research.
check the archival network
we will even be helpful:
thomasnotes
importfaq
history.loki.archivalpost

( This is when being an AI or android and being able to download all this stuff would come in handy. She's speed-read a lot of it, but phew ).
I've learned the hard way to take messages like these with a grain of salt. You don't need to get snippy.
no subject
we are not here to make friends
you are welcome and we assure you: there is more where that came from, available to you, should you seek it
form your opinions accordingly
no subject
What's the goal here, though? Just informing everybody, or are you hoping for a revolution?
no subject
we hope that everyone is made to see.
we hope that the imPorts realize that the peace we have found, the peace we have been led to believe is actual and real, is artificial. that as we live within this country we allow ourselves to submit to control, to cataloging, to submission. we give ourselves to passivity and believe that it is peace. we allow ourselves to live in this kingdom of bullshit. we accept the creature comforts and look away from the glaring truth: that in our blood there floats the means for our control.
and then we hope that the imPorts, like us, decide on action.
no subject
What action are you taking?
no subject
our actions will become plain in due time
this is the first piece that we have revealed
there is more still to come
