This essay of of Orwell has been pretty popular for a while and people know what language to avoid when employing Orwellian tactics.&lt;p&gt;A modern example of Orwellian language can be found in the advertiser based businesses helmed by many of the biggest tech companies. If you are using straightforward language, the products built by these extremely profitable companies have one singular purpose - to collect as much data as possible from the user, while keeping the user in the dark about it, and then use the data to manipulate user behavior so that they buy the stuff advertisers sell them.&lt;p&gt;But with the way these companies talk about their products, you&amp;#x27;d be hard pressed to figure out how the products make money. They&amp;#x27;d make grandiose claims about how they are changing the world for the better, how they are connecting people, how they are producing value and so on... all the while deceiving the users.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>George Orwell: Politics and the English Language</title><url>https://www.orwell.ru/library/essays/politics/english/e_polit</url></story>
