"The shocking untold story of the elite secret society of  
hackers fighting to protect our freedom, "a hugely important  
piece of the puzzle for anyone who wants to understand the  
forces shaping the internet age" (The New York Times Book  
Review)

"Cult of the Dead Cow is the tale of the oldest active, most
respected, and most famous American hacking group of all time.
With its origins in the earliest days of the internet, the cDc
is full of oddball characters-activists, artists, and
musicians-some of whom went on to advise presidents, cabinet
members, and CEOs, and who now walk the corridors of power in
Washington and Silicon Valley.

"Today, the group and its followers are battling electoral
misinformation, making personal data safer, and organizing to
keep technology a force for good instead of for surveillance
and oppression. Now featuring a new afterword with updates on
the collective, Cult of the Dead Cow describes how, at a time
when governments, corporations, and criminals hold immense
power, a small band of tech iconoclasts is on our side fighting
back.
