Click Here to Kill Everybody: Security and Survival in a Hyper-Connected World by Bruce Schneier
4.0
A thorough analysis of the cyber security risks imposed by the internet, more specially the growing connection of IoT devices to our networks.
Schneier discusses things like product vulnerabilities and the ease of cyber attacks, the governments desire of surveillance over security, and the lack of transparency given to the public by corporations.
He proposes strong plans for the improvement of global cyber security and data privacy, along with how government policy done right can help turn us in a direction to a better, safe, and peaceful inter-connected world.
Overall, a very informative (albeit terrifying) view into how unstable everything really is (even if it’s all a little cherrypicked). He does repeat a little too much sometimes, and a few of his proposals for the future seem rather implausible, but nonetheless a great read.
