It's things like this that make me think Huxley was more prescient than people give him credit for. People correctly see Orwell's language ideas using propaganda and how dystopian that is, but I don't see it being the main way we get to a dystopian future.
People will ASK for this because it's convenient and be amazed at the technology, not realizing the immense control it gives central planners and the authoritarianism that inevitably follows.
We will be lulled into tyranny by laziness.
