No big brother began in 1998 - EDIT: question was not about the television show.

Improved:

It is subject to interpretation whether or not the character "Big Brother" from the George Orwell book (nineteen eighty-four) exists in the story or not. The two interpretations I personally have found is that a) Yes, he exists and b) No, Big Bother is the personification of the collective, he represents the Party as a figure of power masking the actual members and therefore the Party itself is Big Brother.

At one point the character known as O'brien explains b)* to the main character Winston. Either way in essence, Big Brother exists.
