Your Best Interest

We truly are your friends.

There really is no need to fear.

Just move about your day.

There’s really nothing to see here.

“Surveillance” is so harsh.

Let’s call it “vigilance.”

Just watching out for you.

We want to keep you safe, after all.

No, we’re not looking for control.

Just go back to your Wi-Fi, your streaming…

And your Tik Tok.

Pay us no mind.

We’ll just be here in the background.

Rest assured…

Everything we do is in your best interest.
