An in depth, pre-Snowden journalistic investigation into the world of whistleblowers and data leakers.

This was a tough read to get into. Interesting, but dry and dense. Every chapter is also an interweaving of multiple people‘s stories.

The historical parts were interesting and fun to try out (despite some typos) but the more modern (though since the book came out in 2002, not that modern) sections were more difficult to follow and could have done with more examples taken from real life to demonstrate how the theory is used.

Love the book stamp you can get put in your books in Libreria London

Scott Shapiro, Yale Professor: “Suppose, however, I want to send some of my writings to my friend at Stanford? (This is hypothetical, of course: I have no friends at Stanford)”.

I have to give a presentation on cybersecurity this week and decided to re-listen to this audiobook. I absolutely love this book about a woman making a career in the early days of ethical hacking and penetration testing.

First half is hard to put down.
