Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Edward Snowden selected three journalists to unveil the stories behind his trove of NSA documents: Barton Gellman, Glenn Greenwald, and Laura Poitras, who later won a Pulitzer Prize for Public Service. Poitras directed the Oscar-winning Citizenfour, while Greenwald positioned himself as a staunch advocate for Snowden. Gellman, however, approached the narrative differently. With over 20 years as a top investigative journalist, he utilized his extensive connections in national security and technology to deepen the story. New sources emerged, reaching out through the same secret channels as Snowden, allowing Gellman to uncover further insights from the NSA archive. As public interest in Snowden's revelations waned, the issues he highlighted persisted, with many policies remaining unchanged despite public outcry. This account offers a gripping look at the challenges Gellman faced, including discovering his name in Snowden's documents and receiving alerts about foreign attempts to compromise his accounts. He encountered sophisticated impostors and anomalies on his devices, forcing him to adopt their tactics for self-defense. With a vivid style reminiscent of his bestselling Angler, this narrative explores the surveillance-industrial revolution and the ongoing fight against state and corporate intrusions into privacy, while providing a comprehensive view of an unprecedented government leak.
