The year was 1984.....

The article I read in correlation to the Atlantic article "Freedom's Curse" was called "Media Censorship Helps Build Police States" published by the Federal Debt Relief System. The article argues that the government's surveillance of what Americans say and regulating what they are allowed to say creates a police state. The author of the article compares this police state to one similar of Big Brother in the George Orwell novel, 1984. The author argues that by allowing the government to regulate what we are allowed to say in the media, we are having our right to freedom of speech taken away from us.
