Marcus Yallow ist smart, schnell und im Netz zu Hause. Als Terroristen einen Anschlag auf San Francisco verüben, sind er und seine Freunde jedoch in einem illegalen Onlinegame unterwegs. Agenten der Homeland Security nehmen ihn fest und verhören ihn tagelang. Als Marcus endlich wieder freigelassen wird, hat sich seine Heimatstadt in einen Überwachungsstaat verwandelt. Marcus und seine Freunde schwören, dass sie Homeland Security aus ihrer Stadt vertreiben werden - es beginnt ein gefährliches Katz-und-Maus-Spiel ...
Dette er ei bok du gjer, ikkje ei bok du leser, seier forfattar Doctorow sjølv. Ansjå den som ei lærebok som også er ei underhaldande historie – ei som i desse dagar er meir aktuell enn då boka vart utgiven.
Kinda corny and half written like a blog but fun story for techy nerds.
The most scary thing is the fact we already live in a society that uses terrorism and other boogeymen to tighten the control of communication and movement of the citizens.
IT security is well explained. Even if this book is for youth, I realized I didn't fully understand some security concepts (public-private key) until now.

First Cory Doctorow book I read, just amazing!
Probably my favorite Doctorow book. All about the problematic reaction the US government has in responding to terrorism, and an imagined near future where some find new ways to fight back.
