George Orwell's novel from 1949 is a dark prediction on how the future might look like, with a totalitarian system with virtually no individual human rights. The book was written in the shadow of World War II, with inspiration from Germany under the National Socialist Party and Soviet Union at that time. The book revolves around Winston Smith, a low-ranking member of the ruling Party in London, in the nation of Oceania. The story takes place in a dark and gloomy society, where the ruling Party watches every move of the people through «telescreens», even in their own home. Everywhere Winston turns he sees the face of the ruling Party's leader, only known as Big Brother. The Party has full control in Oceania. They control people's language, history, and they even have a «Thought Police» that watches over the citizens to make sure no one thinks rebellious thoughts, which is illegal. Thoughtcrimes is seen as the worst of all crimes in Oceania. For us in 2016, I would say that the most outstanding parallel from the book is «Big Brother is watching you». In the book the ruling Party watches the people through «telescreens», sort of a two-way TV. Today websites like Facebook and Google can save our every move online.
