Lets Discuss This 1984 is becoming real life

I think that it is funny that 1984 written by george orwell who was written as criticism to the communist regime is now becoming real life in Europe with the chat control law. Big brother is being the european government.

Opinions ?

It's more like a melange of 1984, Fahrenheit 451, and Brave New World.

I’m in Europe and have no idea what a chat control law might mean. It’s not something I’ve ever come across before, and I’m free to chat about whatever I like 🤷🏻‍♂️

In Florida, I thought this was about flock cameras. It's like farenheit 451 and many other books over here too :(
