A for Anonymous (Graphic novel): How a Mysterious Hacker Collective Transformed the World David Kushner 9781568588780

A for Anonymous shows how a leaderless band of volunteers successfully used hacktivism to fight for the underdog, embarrass their rich and powerful targets-from Sony and Paypal to the Church of Scientology and Ferguson Police Department-all in the name of freedom of speech and information. Their exploits blurred the distinction between "online" and "reality," and help shape our contemporary world.
