Kindle a Fire

...and get it to Fahrenheit 451; that's the temperature at which paper burns.

I saw an article which wondered whether books would be a thing of the past in 5 years. Maybe. So the efforts of the firemen in Ray Bradbury's  Fahrenheit 451 have come to fruition, and there are no more books. The Lords of the Power Grid and Data Encryption will have total control of the Internet and the airwaves, and they will control what is available to be read on your Kindle and your other e-book machines that are enslaved to the technology that disseminates information; a technology much more arcane and difficult than graffitti or writing on a wall, or printing a pamphlet, for that matter.

Free TV is gone, and how is that working for you? Soon hard editions of books will be gone, and the ephemeral electronic book will be at the mercy of Ministry of Truth; they will be constantly edited to reflect the changing truths of tyranny. And they will be in NewSpeak, so get used to it!
