Steal This Computer Book 3: What They Won't Tell You About the Internet

This offbeat, non-technical book looks at what hackers do, how they do it, and how you can protect yourself. The third edition of this bestseller adopts the same informative, irreverent, and entertaining style that made the first two editions a huge success. Thoroughly updated, this edition also covers rootkits, spyware, web bugs, identity theft, hacktivism, wireless hacking (wardriving), biometrics, and firewalls.

Customer Review: Not bad

Nutshell review - Not a bad book, fun to read, can learn a few things and worth a read. Listed some good resources but will date quickly in the Internet age.



Customer Review: Couldn't get past one sentance...

"Hackers are generally lazy but intelligent, which means they don't like doing something boring that they can program the computer to do for them instead." and thats as far as I got. It irritates me how someone thinks they have enough knowledge on a subject to write a book, yet blatantly has no understanding of the subculture they pretend to have an expertise in. You can get away with this trashy writing in The Daily Mail, but if you're trying to educate people then you're just going to get seen thru straight away.
