Little Brother

chapter 14

This chapter 14 includes two important moments in the text. First, this is where we have the first reference to “Little Brothers,” and second, there is reference to the fact that the American news agencies have failed to cover the story of the A-oh-A. Describe who the Little Brothers are and explain what is important about the American news services NOT covering what the Little Brothers are doing.

Little brothers are an allusion to Orwell's Big Brother from his novel 1984. Little brothers, however watch the state instead of the other way around. The Xnet is filled with many "Little Brothers" who "watch back against the Department of Homeland Security's anti­terrorism measures, documenting the failures and excesses"
