I believe the main message that George Orwell is trying to communicate to us through 1984 is that the we shouldn't let out future become like this. The fact that Orwell mentions in the back of the back that this is his theory of how the future will be, it shows that Orwell wants us to know that he thinks this will happen. "1984 is still the great modern classic of 'negative utopia'" (Afterward By Erich Fromm) I think he wrote this so that people in the back could understand that technology could eventually take our privacy and be all around us. For example, the telescreen is first mentioned on page 3, "The telescreen received and transmitted simultaneously. Any sound that Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper..." I believe this is why technology is mentioned a lot of times. There are several messages that Orwell tries to explain however, the use of technology is one of the main ones.
