TBH, this review is kinda trash and misses key points of the book imo, like the television screens aren't always watching, it's a psychological fear of the possibility of being watched, big brother was likely never a real person or if he was was irrelevant to the actual functioning of ingsoc society (in a not dissimilar way to how Stalin was not that responsible for soviet governing but a figurehead for the machine, which is not inaccurate), and the section on Newspeak reads like Asimov literally skimmed the section and didn't read that part of the book as it's pretty inaccurate, and he somehow completely misses the point that the war is fake the whole time. Really don't understand how Asimov that seriously misinterpreted the book.

Asimov was always oddly bad at interpreting other author's work, like he had some whack ideas on what stuff represented in Lord of The Rings.
