She ended up becoming so closely connected to Anonymous that the tricky story of her inside-out side status as Anon confidante, interpreter, and erstwhile mouthpiece f orms one of the themes of this witty and entirely engrossing book.The n arrative brims with details unearthed from within a notoriously mysteri ous subculture, whose semi-legendary tricksters--such as Topiary, tflow , Anachaos, and Sabu--emerge as complex, diverse, politically and cultu rally sophisticated people. Propelled by years of chats and encounters with a multitude of hackers, including imprisoned activist Jeremy Hammo nd and the double agent who helped put him away, Hector Monsegur, Hacke r, Hoaxer, Whistleblower, Spy is filled with insights into the meaning of digital activism and little understood facets of culture in the Inte rnet age, including the history of "trolling," the ethics and metaphysi cs of hacking, and the origins and manifold meanings of "the lulz.""-- |
