??? (rise up, rise up)

[at approximately noon today, no matter what your phone settings, you hear a loud, harsh alarm tone, and the following broadcast. the voice is heavily distorted, difficult to tell its gender or whether it’s human, alien, or robot, though the intonation is much more variable than how the iterations speak. the screen of your phones during this broadcast displays a graphic of a red anatomical heart set against a plain, light grey background. there is no username listed.]

BEFORE THERE CAN BE ANY ACTION, A REVOLUTION MUST WAKE THE SLEEPING PEOPLE.

ARE YOU AWAKE YET?

OR DO YOU STILL BELIEVE THE LIES THEY’VE FED YOU?

WAKE UP! WAKE UP!

LISTEN TO THE HEART.

[the broadcast ends with the same braying tone, and the screen cuts to black. there will be no responses from the poster, and within fifteen minutes, the admins have wiped the message from the network. sure hope some intrepid soul finds a way to download and store the message offline ...

on an ooc note: feel free to use this post as a place to comment around, discuss wtf just happened with your comrades, jump into action threads, etc.!]

activists who hack

If you find a video rental place you'll have to see if they have them. It makes more sense in context than out

you're really only missing one movie, one book, and the concept of hacking

[firacrux]

In hindsight that should have been obvious. Still don't get how that works but whatever.

Yeah I'll try to put that on my list. If they have media from your world here at all that is.

Oh. So just all the major points? No big deal.

[ichoosefight]

the first two don't count because I'm recommending them

and hacking is kind of a mystery regardless

[firacrux]

They're still critical to understanding what you're talking about.

Is it? I'll take your word for it. Information gathering wasn't my specialty.

[ichoosefight]

get thee to a rental shop then!

[firacrux]

I'll keep an eye out for one when I'm around. Thanks for the tips.
