This is a massively optional device that sits on your counter or wall.

1984 would be if you had to carry a Internet connected camera around with you all the time. Brave new world would be if you had to carry around an entertainment device just to do your banking.

Ridiculous concepts..

1984 is modern televisions that all require you to sign a EULA and ToS and Privacy Policy before watching an HDMI input because they quite literally don't think you own the TV.

LG believes that "We own the glass", and sell that glass real estate to anyone and everyone they can, and are listening to you pretty much all the time to do so, and this is above and beyond the existing status quo of them tracking every single thing you watch, even on that HDMI input.

In the US, they can then go on to sell any of that info to the police and government. The Supreme Court says you gave up your privacy rights from the government when you agreed to the ToS from LG.

We literally have telescreens. They sell very well.
