A review by violabaldwin
Permanent Record by Edward Snowden
4.0
Great book, I am so impressed by Edward Snowden and his courage and principles, and his strong character to make such a difficult but important decision all by himself. I hope he gets pardoned very soon and will be protected and able to live a free life.
I loved how he wrote the book so that complicated technical stuff stayed as understandable and comprehensive as possible, loved the personal touch of Lindsey's journal entries and overall, how none of it ever got too boring or technical or too lost in details.
I was very surprised and shocked to read that so many of the agency's employees are Fox News and Breitbart fanboys but less surprised how the surveillance practices fired up the toxic masculinity.
