1984 is wayyy too exaggerated. We don’t need to force people to have a “telescreen” if everyone just voluntarily spend their own resources to obtain them. (Eg: Smart Home Assistants) We don’t need to have a “ministry of truth” when people voluntarily believe in lies spread on news and social media. (Eg: Various Facebook groups, “QAnon”, Fox News)
My guess: Electric vehicles everywhere, protests, more linux users, and portless phones will be the norm
Edit: Oh yeah privacy is dead or at least much more harder to obtain
2033 is the year of Linux on the desktop.
“This year for sure” :^)

This is something that I feel like Brave New World got a lot more right. In that book, people’s pleasures are their prisons.
Huxley even pointed out why his vision of the future was more likely than Orwell’s
