Perhaps they could push one of the T-HUB's into every home, maybe add a webcam:

And a 1984 can finally be realised!

Propoganda pushed straight to the home. National instant paging. Could you imagine the pranks? Could a dictator want for anything more?

Or perhaps recreate City-17 from the alternative reality from the Halflife universe, and have messages relayed to us dailyor hourly from 
A figurehead like Dr Wallace Breen : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallace_Breen#Wallace_Breen


The possibilities are endless!

Instant national multicast propaganda service with content filtering added to boot! Add a webcam and you can quash dissenters immediately!
