Saw a number of free books on Apple Books and was wondering if I could get them on my Kindle. Every single one I tried was DRM-free other than 1984.

Having read it a long time ago I was having a hard time figuring out what's ironic about it, thanks for confirming I'm not forgetting something from the book.

I think OP was saying that a book that basically tells you to deny Big Brother, fuck the system, and think for yourself is being protected behind the system, in this case DRM

That's just my guess, though. Haven't honestly read 1984 since college
