Sure, but a 1984 comparison is not appropriate here.

Why not? Will you care who oppresses you?
This reply cannot possibly be a good faith addition to the discussion.
Accusing people of bad faith is against HN policy.
While true, fsflover has not made any statements and is only posting questions. He's "JAQing off" [0], so to speak. It's a hallmark of bad faith arguing.

I honestly don't understand why the 1984 comparison is not appropriate here, because the book is about the oppression. I don't know how it's for you guys (that's why I asked), but for me it does not matter who oppresses me, government or corporations.
It most definitely is.
