[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.]

This feels more like an attempt to incite panic or instant belief than any real attempt to inform. It's assumptive of ignorance and ignorant in and of itself. Why would the government trust us? We don't trust them. The government sets us up and is met with violent acts that hurt the community outside of imPorts more than anyone else. Wouldn't make any sense for them to extend too much trust our way; we continually bite the hand that feeds. Wariness is sensible.
Watch lists exist for a reason. The very idea of lists aren't new and don't indicate anything, with or without proof they exist in the first place. This is what happens when you go against the grain in any world that has watch lists. You are put on a watch list. Again, assuming it even exists. Assuming we aren't all on one large watch list.
This feels like flash. Warnings should have substance.

anonymous text obviously
a downloadable file
a printed list on government stationary
permathat!
no subject
disinterested
otherwise out of sorts
domainkeys are also available as proof
stripped from the lists as they were sent and stored
we are not desperate to prove but to disseminate
no subject
no subject
there are no recorded conversations
no sting operation
a source document is available for consideration to the truly interested and concerned, containing the domainkey and the names
you have abandoned your catalog of information
we continue in the work
contextually the implication of the list goes beyond format and is related to Debrecen
tying all things together
comprehend please, that the names on this list have been earmarked for special attention
nanites become involved
no subject
cataloging information for the public eye was never my decision
i only saved what had been put forth from being lost forever
some people actively seek information and in doing so miss what they're looking for
repeatedly
not my brand
nanites are always involved
they've always been involved
that changes nothing
[Except his typing style. Congrats, Darlene! You've Gotten Under His Skin Just Enough to receive a bit of mimicry. Not mockery. Just holding up a mirror and giving the capslock a break.]
no subject
watchlist
the involvement of the nanites concerns us
the ease of manipulation
the sense of freedom, so liberally enjoyed by the imPorts, is a fragile thing that will be shaken
has been shaken
and will be shaken again
no subject
[Because even if he Disagrees with methods, being polite can save your fucking life!!!]
shaken AND stirred
you should have seen some of the outrage that's happened the past
3 years
when it shouldn't
we are not a difficult batch to disturb
doesn't take much
