Brainstorming the 1984 Assignment Essay

Essay Question: Does the Patriot Act, national biometric ID cards, security cameras and highway GPS systems strike the balance between freedom and security? What civil rights do they infringe upon? Is it fair to ask Americans to give up information and privacy rights for greater security? Finally can you draw any parallels between the security measures taken by Big Brother in George Orwell’s 1984 and the Patriot Act in 21st Century America? Use at least two Orwellian terms when making your comparisons.

Document all the questions that you would need answers to while writing your 1984 Essay.
