A Block Big Brother Today In 1984‚ George Orwell created a world so undesirable that one could not even imagine living in it. A world where even a thought against the “party” is considered the gravest of crimes. Orwell’s vivid portrayal of the extreme effects the government can impress on its’ citizens may seem unbelievable but Big Brother and the Party is still evident today.

The realistic truth between George Orwell’s 1984 and today’s current time period is evident through both governments use of surveillance through Big Brother and the NSA.
