Ashley Black, ospite di Samantha Bee, intervista l’esperto dell’Aclu, Chris Soghoian sui rischi della sorveglianza di massa
Ashley Black, ospite di Samantha Bee, intervista l’esperto dell’Aclu, Chris Soghoian sui rischi della sorveglianza di massa e poi si lancia in un simpatico duetto per ricordarci che non sono solo i russi a sorvegliare gli americani, ma un potente apparato statale, quello della Nsa.
Nel video di sei minuti Ashley si ritrova a partecipare ad una riunione di crypto-hacker con cui discute dei pregiudizi verso gli afroamericani e verso tutte le persone non conformiste, gay, transgender, attivisti e dissidenti politici, e quindi argomenta in maniera sarcastica sui rischi connessi a un uso superficiale di telefoni e strumenti digitali. Solo dopo Ashley si tufferà in un duetto canoro per ironizzare sui rischi della mancanza di privacy.
Il testo della canzone:
(The Russians aren’t the only ones watching you)
Lyrics:
Now if you’re black, watch your back cuz you never alone
They take the data that you own and they don’t have to condone
We go through episodes too like Attack of The Clones
Except even Darth Vader wasn’t hacking our phones.
To get by
Just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by
Lock your phone with a passcode,
Or what you’re downloading gets stolen,
Basically be the black Edward Snowden.
Just to get by
Just to get by
Just to get by
Just to get by
The N.Y.P.D. put the troll in patrol,
They online collecting everything we post from Twitter to Vine (R.I.P.)
Unencrypted apps let ’em have all your data that’s private
Like every dick pic that you text to your side chick
Your spy shit, they’re trying to take us fifty years back,
Fuck your password, get ready for Revenge of the Black Nerds.
Just to get by
Just to get by
Will somebody white please appropriate this track so this shit can get mentioned, please
It goes against the Fourth Amendment
