thanks
got the idea this morning and could not wait to do it.
I know others have done the whole 1984/v for vengence lack of privacy thing, but i wanted to focus more on the language changes/thoughtcrimes that would occur.
We already see laguage changes with the use of "to google" to mean "to search the internet" and "freedom and democracy" to mean "invasion and war".
I think Eric Blair, no relation, was quite prophetic.

yes
and it seems there is already a constant war going on somewhere, so people have too much distraction to think about what is really going on
