wanderlustdamsel's review against another edition
2.0
Hacked again is made up of small snippets which scare you and continue to do so without offering a viable solution.
The start sounds very promising and I liked reading the first three chapters but after that it got repetitive and scary since the security failures kept happening. The only good thing were the quick tips at the end of those chapters giving a tiny relief.
What further didn't work for me while reading the book was that lot of information given was what I already knew or is easily available elsewhere. There was nothing new or different that would make a reader gravitate towards it.
Although if it's someone from older generation getting into cyber space for first time then I would definitely recommend this to them.
