Dystopian Elements:
Misinformation: Withholding important information from citizens, or simply telling lies to citizens; this may include limiting or even banning access to books, news, internet, TV, or other streaming or information services.
Lack of Individuality: Controls citizens by requiring everyone to dress or look a certain way, assigning jobs, housing, spouses, children, or just about anything to citizens. People lose their freedom of choice for many everyday things. They may even use genetic engineering to create a society where people have certain features or abilities
Surveillance: Citizens no longer have privacy to a very high degree. There might be cameras or microphones everywhere to keep track of citizens even in private places like homes. People find it hard to misbehave or speak out against their government when surveillance is used because they are always being monitored.
Government Control: The ability to know the truth about the world, make choices for their own lives, and have privacy are often lacking or missing altogether for citizens. It may be a combination of all the elements listed above.
