dward Snowden, the man who risked everything to expose the US government’s system of mass surveillance, reveals for the first time the story of his life, including how he helped to build that system and what motivated him to try to bring it down.
In 2013, twenty-nine-year-old Edward Snowden shocked the world when he broke with the American intelligence establishment and revealed that the United States government was secretly pursuing the means to collect every single phone call, text message, and email. The result would be an unprecedented system of mass surveillance with the ability to pry into the private lives of every person on earth. Six years later, Snowden reveals for the very first time how he helped to build this system and why he was moved to expose it.
Spanning the bucolic Beltway suburbs of his childhood and the clandestine CIA and NSA postings of his adulthood, Permanent Record is the extraordinary account of a bright young man who grew up online—a man who became a spy, a whistleblower, and, in exile, the Internet’s conscience. Written with wit, grace, passion, and an unflinching candor, Permanent Record is a crucial memoir of our digital age and destined to be a classic.

2016年以来我们一直在告诉自己，不要强调民主的理想，那太幼稚；因为我们强调得太多而不给别的意见妥协所以造就了右翼的崛起和川普的当选。但是现在这个由美国独立精神驱动的人，做出了这么重要的工作。他是一个非常现实的理想主义者。我们这一代人共有这个经历：web1.0带来的平等、民主理想的希望，很快被大企业和政府abuse。看到最近几年压抑的理想主义在这本书里被毫不避讳又深思熟虑地说出来，让我感觉读这本书... 2016年以来我们一直在告诉自己，不要强调民主的理想，那太幼稚；因为我们强调得太多而不给别的意见妥协所以造就了右翼的崛起和川普的当选。但是现在这个由美国独立精神驱动的人，做出了这么重要的工作。他是一个非常现实的理想主义者。我们这一代人共有这个经历：web1.0带来的平等、民主理想的希望，很快被大企业和政府abuse。看到最近几年压抑的理想主义在这本书里被毫不避讳又深思熟虑地说出来，让我感觉读这本书是一种放纵。我们的理想并没有死，也不是不现实。要靠我们让理想植根于现实，从重新定义数据的意义开始…… (展开)

勇气、智慧、思考、反省、人性之光。我觉得除此之外没有什么好说的了，总之强推。

「所謂『長大』代表的是你體會到：你的存在受制於成套的規範，模棱兩可的規則以及毫無根據的常規。」——讀的是繁體版。Snowden是個天才，很聰明，也是個鬥士。這個自傳的很好讀，不僅有計算機方面的才華，寫起東西來也很不錯啊！
