All our devices and gadgets -- from our refrigerators to our home security systems, vacuum cleaners, and stereos -- are going online. But have we considered what this new age of internet-connected devices means for our security, our privacy, and ourselves? In this book, veteran cybersecurity professional Mikko Hypponen delivers an eye-opening exploration of the best -- and worst -- things the internet has given us. From instant connectivity between any two points on the globe to organized ransomware gangs, the net truly has been a mixed blessing. The author explores the transformative potential of the future of the internet, as well as those things that threaten its continued existence: government surveillance, censorship, organized crime, and more.
