I enjoyed this story. Especially how it wraps up showing what political reality is at the height of an authoritarian ruler. Reading while Andor season 2 is releasing was interesting to say the least.

In his book Perry lays out the newish digital tools being used to deceive and misdirect, and the human foibles that make all of us susceptible. Written in a conversational tone with plenty of toools and suggested exercises to become familiar with what we’re up against.
