I think I read about it in a book once, where it was called "wrongthink".

This is starting to sound double plus un good.

See that's not how you spell it in "wrongthink"

It's ++nogood

Because no is really un, they are pronounced identically and you didn't know that because you aren't as cool as Prez

Pretty sure the term was invented in Minority Report as a legal gray area where it's in many way immoral to prevent crime by arresting people before they commit anything. It's literally a real life example of the Torment Nexus meme.
