When the Brits invade a country,
It’s called the march of civilization.
When refugees arrive in search of life,
It’s dehumanized as illegal immigration.

When America recruits talents from abroad,
It is proudly boasted as headhunting.
When another nation does exactly the same,
It is hailed as espionage and IP stealing.

When America spies on everybody else,
It is sugarcoated as national security.
If someone so much as loses a weather balloon,
It is used to gaslight a nation into a frenzy.

To see the world as it is, first
we gotta take off our western glasses.
Look at the human world with human eyes,
only then you’ll fathom justice and progress.

The purpose of a strong password
is not to keep your accounts safe,
but to keep your accounts moderately
secure against common scammers, however,

if you become a target of actual hackers,
or a person of interest to the government,
have no doubt, your internet
activities are already monitored.

Paranoia of cybersecurity only ruins sanity,
it does nothing to establish security.
No technology that’s connected
to the internet is unhackable,
either you can have internet or privacy.

So, don’t post family pictures online,
keep your passwords moderately complex,
refrain from consentless content,
cloud is the last place to be private.
