They also (allegedly) had a policy for a while of answering the phone with the name of the office - so "good morning, Wang London" or "good afternoon, Wang Los Angeles" etc. You get the idea. Very quickly, their Cologne office was exempted from this policy.
"The telescreen received and transmitted simultaneously. Any sound that Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper, would be picked up by it; moreover, so long as he remained within the field of vision which the metal plaque commanded, he could be seen as well as heard. There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. "

Orwell was wrong in one respect. You can be sure that Samsung's AI is definitely monitoring you at any given moment.
You're right, Trump did handle the pandemic badly. In the same four year period the UK rate rose from 4.6% to 4.9%. In France, the rate actually dropped!
Also: in the four years prior to Trump taking office, the rate fell from 8.0% to 4.7%. In fact, before the pandemic, it had been falling steadily since late 2009. Trump can hardly claim credit for the trend in the early part of his presidency that had been happening for years prior to it.
