Additionally, this technology encrypts the books so that only the eBook owners can view their materials.<\/p>\n<p>The company believes strongly in the ethos of cryptocurrency. The selection of Huxley\u2019s \u201cBrave New World\u201d is not a coincidence. The dystopian novel paints a chilling portrait of what our future might look like\u2013 a world in which citizens live under almost complete government control.<\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, \u201cBrave New World\u2019 is among the <a href=\"https:\/\/study.com\/learn\/lesson\/brave-new-world-aldous-huxley-banned.html#:~:text=Most%20notably%2C%20the%20novel%20was,family%20and%20anti%2Dreligious%20content.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">most banned books in history<\/a>.
