SOPA relates to the book 1984
SOPA and the book 1984 do relate to each other. SOPA is to try to snuff out piracy online. The places that SOPA is targeting is Facebook and Google because of the language that people use are not right.Another reason why the higher people are targeting Facebook and Google is people use them sites every day. SOPA is designed to do two things. “The first was to make it possible for companies to block the domain names of web sites that are simply capable of, or seem to encourage copyright infringement. This would have been bad for everyone because such a measure doesn't actually prevent piracy. The other, still-active measure present in the SOPA bills would allow rights holders to cut of the source of funding of any potentially infringing web site. This means any other companies doing business with this site would have to stop.” Many of websites have spoke up because of SOPA. Some of them websites are Twitter, Google, Reddit, Kickstarter, Tumblr, Mozilla, Yahoo, AOL, eBay, Zynga, Facebook, and several other sites. Now in 1984 there is no privacy. In Oceania there are cameras every where no matter where you go. There are always people watching, reading, and listening to every little thing you do. Another example of no privacy in 1984 is that if the thought police think or believe that you are thinking something you will be in a lot of trouble. Just like Winston had started to write in this small little book and if he gets caught writing in it he will be in a lot of trouble because that is double thinking which is against the law.
