A for Anonymous: How a Mysterious Hacker Collective Transformed the World

by David Kushner, Illustrated by Koren Shadmi Bold Type Books 3/31/2020, paperback SKU: 9781568588780   The illustrated, inside story of the legendary hacktivist group's origins and most daring exploits. A for Anonymous shows how a leaderless band of volunteers successfully used hacktivism to fight for the underdog, embarrass their rich and powerful targets--from Sony and Paypal to the Church of Scientology and Ferguson Police Department--all in the name of freedom of speech and information. Their exploits blurred the distinction between online and reality, and help shape our contemporary world. Reviews: "Scenes of hacktivists sitting at their computers are made compelling by Shadmi's clever use of surrealist imagery. A thought-provoking history of an oft-misunderstood subject, as well as the evolution of social protests over the past three decades." -- Library Journal About the Contributors: David Kushner is an award-winning journalist and author.
