Invasion of Privacy! Big Brother and the Company Hackers (repost)

Invasion of Privacy! Big Brother and the Company Hackers by Michael Weber
English | 2003 | ISBN: 1592000436 | 296 pages | CHM | 10 MB


Pop-up ads, cookies, spyware, spam, junk mail, telemarketing calls. Rapidly evolving technology has made you a target and your personal information a desirable commodity. Your profile is out there and it's available not just to the highest bidder, but to every bidder.

Technology, advertising, the media, and government have converged to invade our privacy. Invasion of Privacy exposes the dangers and proposes a practical defense. Invasion of Privacy is about people; people who do good and evil things with technology, people who are victims of technology, and victims who become avengers by turning the tables on the technology that victimizes them.

There are a slew of books by hackers, for hackers, but no books about hacking for the average reader. "Invasion of Privacy" cuts to the nitty-gritty, simplifying need-to-know information for a mass audience. Hacking may be a serious subject but that doesn't preclude it from being entertaining. The first two sections profile a wide spectrum of hackers and security professionals, providing readers with an intrinsic understanding of the overall threat to their security and privacy. The last section equips readers with a step-by-step regimen created by the best hackers in the world to secure privacy, data, and ideas.
