This book ranged from 3.5 stars to 4.5 stars so I guess that does average out to a 4, but I wish I could give it a 3.5. I wish it had been organized in a different way, I felt like we jumped around a lot and as a reader you had to piece together time lines, but the information was very good and he did a good job of explaining technical details for a slightly technical audience. ( ) It describe the world of how WikiLeaks and the internet anonymity movement started. I found it informative with good narrative. It tells the story of Cypherpunks, hack geeks and how PGP, tor idea came to live. The ideas of several individual and their obsession with privacy, anonymity, and non censorship. What are the main idea about mixer algorithms to hide traffic and the multiple layer of encryption that Tor use. The story then move to Wikileak earlier days and Julian Assange early life. Later days after their major leak of Afghan war documents. The future of such freedom of world information.
Andy Greenberg's fascinating and well-researched This Machine Kills Secrets . . . looks at the hackers and activists who were arguing in the 1990s that cryptography, the practice of communicating in code, shouldn't just be the preserve of governments and militaries but should be used by civilians to protect their privacy against the surveillance state. The book is at its best when tracing the evolution of the cypherpunk movement. Bemerkenswerte Listen
