Outer Party members have no ability to turn off the telescreens, or refuse being under constant surveillance, therefore making it difficult to revolt against The Party. If citizens know they are always watched, it provokes fear in them to revolt, so they try hard to act like perfect citizens according to The Party’s standards. If they perform Thoughtcrime or Facecrime, such as “Down with Big Brother” (20), citizens know they will face dreadful consequences, so they try to avoid these crimes.
