Oh, I was talking about the tech-bros. They're the ones who shouldn't have access to sci-fi, or at least not the cautionary tales

1984 was never meant to be a guide damn it!

To be honest I'm pretty certain that none of them have actually read the 1984 they dont strike me as being particularly book orientated.
