    I read 1984 (as an adult) and really enjoyed it, I’m not sure enjoyed is the right word, as it was also pretty sad. I can highly recommend the book. Animal farm I read for English class when I was 15 (in the Netherlands), didn’t fully get it, and should probably read it again, knowing its meaning.

    Exactly, this is why strong laws are needed. In the end we (the people) all benefit. Maybe a small example but when the EU started to push for usbc as the only standard, it made things lot better. If you are older and still have a drawer with 15 chargers all with different plugs, voltages and amps you known what I mean. Back in the day before cheap chargers from aliexpress, just replacing a simple charger from the manufacturer could be a pretty expensive thing.
