E-books and e-book readers have the solid approval of the Ministry of Truth. Less staffing will be needed to implement newspeak and revision of histories.
hehehe “Ministry of Truth” huh? LOL
Conspiracies are everywhere!
Look an ereader is just another way to read a book, nothing more, nothing less. A lot of folks would LOVE to see them implemented in college courses.... because, frankly having been a college student for over 40 years, I find it amazing when I go I still have to carry 2-3 freakin’ heavy books.
There’s even a BILL in Congress to make “open source books” the norm (which of course falls right into play with your conspiracy that folks will “write their own truth”)
In principle I agree with the fact that it would make it much easier to ‘rewrite history’.
But the internet is already helping people to do that....
So, are we going to throw out the internet too?
