A review by lzebarah
The Art of Invisibility: The World's Most Famous Hacker Teaches You How to Be Safe in the Age of Big Brother and Big Data by Kevin D. Mitnick

informative medium-paced

2.5

At some point, someone needed to sit down with Mitnick and figure out who this book was written for. Ideally, after that conversation, someone would look at the organization of this book and fix it.

The first chapter is about choosing a good password and setting up 2FA.

The next chapter throws you into PGP encryption keys.

Then, about 3 chapters after that, he tells you what HTTPS is.

There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it. Someone in the editing process just completely dropped the ball, and it's not a great look.
