The regimes are known as “big brother,” a term that is still well known today. In 1984, “big brother” is always watching with access to technology that was beyond Orwell’s time but is more familiar to us today. The people of the time are largely controlled by “big brother” thanks to a manipulative media and ever watchful authorities. The book is often referred to today for its parallels with many aspects of today’s society.
