Big brother = internet

"Big Brother" is everywhere. It controls various aspects and how the characters act, think and feel. Big brother is constantly looking to to what people are doing and nothings private. This is a oppression of control. The way Winston is controled is like todays society being control thoughout technology and influnces though technology.The economy is mentally influencing out thought as well. The main character is under the Party’s oppressive political control.They psychologically manipulate and even physical control to keep maintaining its power.
This "big brother" is relavent to facebook and myspace and any social network because all your infomation is not private! Nothing on the internet is private on the internet like personal information credit card numbers etc. The internet is our todays big brother finding everything about everyone.

  1. I agree that nothing is ever private anymore. Text messages, phone calls, websites visited credit card transactions can all be tracked by the government. Even if you are not a criminal and do nothing wrong the government can go through your most personal things. Its just not right.
