    1984 was a great book, but its Brave New World that captures the current state of things a bit better. The main difference being that in Brave New World people welcome the technologies as conveniences, ignoring the implications until it’s too late.

    That has already begun, we are at least 10 years in.

      If we’re going to have the Brave New World, at least let me have my soma and orgy-porgies. This version sucks.
