1. The reason for stripping people of free will is to make (near) total control easier. Rebellion is impossible. 2. The second point is trickier. You say 'controls them without them realizing it'. To some extent, surely, they are aware. They know that they can be observed and they know about the dreaded Ministry of Love and so on ... However, one of the key tricks is to deprive people of knowledge of any real alternative. The wretched world of the novel is the only one that people know. There's no question of travelling to Another Country; there's also no way of travelling into history, into the past. That is why the Party controls all history books and so on. Winston Smith is, for example, unable to find out minor details, such as whether capitalists really did wear top hats or whether it was simply a way of indicating capitalists - what we would now call an icon. One of the key devices for controlling the people in most totalitarian states was to reduce the scope for knowledge of alternatives.
