Little Brother

Marcus, a.k.a «w1n5t0n,» is only seventeen years old, but he figures he already knows how the system works—and how to work the system. Smart, fast, and wise to the ways of the networked world, he has no trouble outwitting his high school’s intrusive but clumsy surveillance systems.

But his whole world changes when he and his friends find themselves caught in the aftermath of a major terrorist attack on San Francisco. In the wrong place at the wrong time, Marcus and his crew are apprehended by the Department of Homeland Security and whisked away to a secret prison where they’re mercilessly interrogated for days.

When the DHS finally releases them, Marcus discovers that his city has become a police state where every citizen is treated like a potential terrorist. He knows that no one will believe his story, which leaves him only one option: to take down the DHS himself.

    This is the best book I've ever read in my life, while learning about security systems and the book's world's systems and features, I truly found a engaging and quite pretty and creative story in such a majestic book, utterly recommended for y'all.

    My first inclination, as always, was to get away: “when in trouble or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.”

    There's an alternative to dwelling on your mistakes. You can learn from them.
    It's a good theory, anyway. Maybe the reason your subconscious dredges up all these miserable ghosts is that they need to get closure before they can rest peacefully in humiliation afterlife.

    Why the hell would terrorists kidnap a bunch of high school students?
