Spying on Citizens: a Valuable, Unintended By-Product
So, I hear that sales of the book 1984 recently have jumped 5800% (yes, fifty-eight hundred). Apparently, the cause is recent leaks about government’s spying on citizens, which is a main plot line in the book. I won’t get into whether the whistle-blowers are right, moral, traitors, or heroes. I just want to thank them for a valuable, unintended by-product: getting people to read and think. Now, THAT’s a public service!
