“Media companies can be divided into two broad categories: the few who create waves, and the many who ride them - or drown.”
Ken Auletta, Googled: The End of the World as We Know It
“Huxley and Orwell did not prophesy the same thing. Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley’s vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think.... Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism.”
Ken Auletta, Googled: The End of the World As We Know It
