George Orwell

Simplified Meaning:

When someone says "Big Brother is watching you," it means that there is someone or something always monitoring what you do. Think of it like having a security camera pointed at you all the time. This concept warns people that their actions and even thoughts might be controlled or spied on by a higher authority, such as the government, employers, or any powerful organization. Imagine you are a worker in a factory, and your boss has cameras set up everywhere to keep an eye on you. Each move you make is recorded, so you feel you must always act perfectly, as if the boss is there watching over your shoulder. This situation can make you feel nervous and unable to relax, as it takes away your freedom and privacy. To connect it to modern life, think about using the internet. Many websites and platforms track what you search for, the pages you visit, and even your conversations. By understanding this, you can be more careful about what you share online and take steps to protect your privacy.
