Orwell Chuckles Knowingly
Orwell envisioned Big Brother. Big Bro is here (read the Patriot Act), but it's often not because Big Bro is intruding on our private lives, its because people are stupid. Really stupid. If you are underage, don't put pics of yourself chugging beer online. If you are a mayor of town, do not post pics of yourself on FaceBook or MySpace showing yourself in lingerie. The former shows illegal behavior, however common, and the latter shows a considerable lack of judgment. Big Brother doesn't have to invade our privacy....there are many willing to shed it altogether for notoriety.
