My organization was part of the author's book tour, we had a webinar with her earlier this year as she provided the book to the entire company. A couple of takeaways:
- Author believes (or is at least attempting to make others believe that she believes) that the NSA is benevolent and not committed to any specific domestic program
- Author frequently stated that 0-day purchasing platforms should not exist as it is a matter of opaque moral policy.
- Author frequently states that contractors like Immunity are problematic because they sell tradecraft to "bad nations" for profit.
- Worth noting that the author is also a NYT contributor and clings to a lot of those same notions.
The overall sentiment of the author after her webinar was that she was egotistically confined to believing in US supremacy and very much in the midst of an ideological war against competing beliefs. Probably not going to get far in her book either in light of that webinar.
