Is freedom something we slowly give away without noticing?

In 1984, the government watches everything people do. Cameras follow citizens. Thoughts are controlled. Even history is rewritten.

Many readers say the book feels more realistic today than when it was written in 1949.

Some people believe modern technology and social media make surveillance easier than ever.

Others say we still have strong freedoms and the world is nothing like the society in the novel. Do you think the world today is moving closer to the kind of society described in 1984 — or is that fear exaggerated?
