Err, sorry, not that it is 1984 or stole from it, but just that it's similar? Then again, 1984 is one of the many works which deals with the theme of dystopias. The way that guy's face was on every television screen just made me think of it. I'm also pretty sure there was a random guy named 'Winston' somewhere ("Winston's wounded!"). I thought it might be an allusion, but it's probably all coincidence...
