In both, in the Story and the Song, people are controlled. In the Story,
they are controlled by one party and big brother and in the Internet-Song,
people are controlled, bescause hackers and other people can look where you are.
The second point is propaganda. In the Story, there were posters of big
brother and you can see it wherever you are. In the Internet, you can go to every
site you want, you'll always find propaganda, too. The next point is fear. In
the Story people are frightened of weapons, war, the party,...
In the Internet-Song fear (what belongs computer and Internet) is mentioned,
too.
