Yep, it’s already happening. Even to print books, but at least publishers can’t re-edit the paper books we already own.

So it's already occurring? I know they did it to Roald Dahl, rewrote the books. I have been meaning to read 1984 and I worry is already modified and I wouldn't know know.

I think we would have heard if a recent edition of 1984 had been modified. It’s not something that can be hidden, given the many paper copies in existence, the number of readers interested in Orwell, and the fact that the novel is about rewriting history.

For sure. But I bet someone is thinking of it right now, without seeing the irony 😂
