Orwell got it wrong really helped open my eyes to the thoughts of others in the 80's. People of the government believed television would ultimately lead to the complete control of society. In turn, what they didn't expect happened. Kinsley makes very valid points after he claims modern communication has expanded human freedom. Every point made in this writing is a good one always backing himself up. I agree one hundred percent that Orwell really did get it wrong in that society would never get the technology we get today. Technology surrounds us daily, and I truly don't know where we would be without it, and I'm sure Orwell would be very surprised to see where we are today.
The style of writing really catches my eye because not only does Kinsley prove Orwell wrong, he does it with poise, each point almost makes Orwell look like an idiot. I also agree with the fact that the democracy of information can be a tough trade off. There is an extreme, over the top amount of inappropriate information on the web, and that really takes a toll on some people. But, the pros definitely cons, and explicit material is something that will never go away. All in all this was a very interesting reading that helped solidify my outlook on technology.
