I'm glad the subject of "1984" finally came up in the context of advertising. When I read Orwell's book in early high school it had a deep and lasting influence over me. Even since I have been very sensitive to propaganda, double-speak, weasel words and varieties of fallacious argument techniques; and the primary sources of these things are politics and advertising. So for me:
Assert.IsTrue(advertising == propaganda); Encrypted advertising?! Now there's a challenging idea. Ignorance is strength. Greg K
