Well, it is said that people who read science fiction are better equipped to cope with new and unexpected situations. But humans are turning out to be very predictable and the situations are not new or unexpected when compared to Orwell.

The whole DNS vs DoH problem is another choice of "centralization and trust in authority" vs "decreased safety and trust in entities closer to home". The current trend is authoritarian. Orwell teaches us all about that. :)

The current trend in tech puts a lot of power in the hands of the root SSL authorities.
