If we keep heading down the path we're going, there's a decent chance the surveillance state from George Orwell's 1984 future will come true.

Kicking off Microsoft's Build developers conference on Wednesday, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said it's up to developers to prevent that from happening.

First borrowing a line from Spider-Man, Nadella said, "With great tech**logy comes great responsibility."

"I do believe it's up to us to ensure that some of the more dystopian scenarios don't come true," Nadella continued.
