Takeaway: Protection from terrorism means protection of freedoms
Little Brother is classic Cory Doctorow. Doctorow is a science fiction writer/free speech advocate/teacher/activist. He has has worked for the Electronic Freedom Foundation, is one of the founders of Boing Boing. I have read several of his science fiction books and short stories. Doctorow is known for his advocacy of free. He has all of his books available for free download if you want to read it electronically. I see now that he allows donations for the free books. I disagreed with his earlier stance of not accepting donation because he wanted people to buy paper copies. I, and many others, don’t want paper copies, we want digital copies and he had no way to accept income from people that wanted to support his writing. He also protested against Amazon’s DRM scheme and refused to allow his books on Amazon, but has relented now that Amazon allows for DRM free versions of books if the authors choose.
