About this ebook
Messing with the Enemy: Surviving in a Social Media World of Hackers, Terrorists, Russians, and Fake News by Clint Watts: Conversation Starters
Clint Watts, leading cyber-security expert and former FBI Special Agent provides readers with an overwhelming but crucial look at the misinformation campaigns and fake news. He also explains everything about the electronic surveillance operations that are the predominant form of current warfare but teaches us how we can shield ourselves and our country against it. Clint Watts sparked debate with his controversial testimony in front of the House Intelligence Committee regarding the involvement of Russia in the elections of 2016. In his book, the homeland security expert describes a fearsome world in which terrorist and cybercriminals aim for your mind instead of your computer.
An Amazon bestseller and worldwide success, author Stephanie Garbe described Messing with the Enemy as a rock solid and useful owner’s manual for a punctured internet and a flawed democracy.
