Too slow and I didn't like the narrative voice. Snowden is unfortunately a less interesting person than I hoped

It was fine. It’s his story. The chapter/part by Lindsey Mills was the best part and TBH I find it kind of messed-up that she wasn’t given an author credit. I’d love to read her story. I’m glad he blew the whistle but his politics are not really that interesting or radical.

I found Crash Overload to be a much more compelling story. As with this, it is centered on a personal story that highlights the internet’s not-so-safe place in our lives. Zoe Quinn also gives some tips in her book about how to minimize exposure, while Snowden essentially says, “Haha! You’re on a watchlist just for buying my book!”
