Neither of my kids had read 1984, which I thought was a scandalous oversight by their school, so I bought them each a copy.
My younger kid said “I guess I can see why it might have been more impressive for you reading it before technology, but this stuff is all pretty obvious”.
My kids are both post-iphone, and therefore natives of a totalitarian society in a way that I (pre-Internet) simply am not.
