Thank you @IanCLucas

Just finished this important history book that narrates the period of political tumult (2015-2020) where we became aware of digital threats to democracy in UK and beyond. We sought accountability and came so close but it was obstructed by the power of the accused in a cover-up.

To order a copy go to digitalgangstersbook.com and it’s entirely unsurprising that none of the big publishers would touch this book. I myself have been unsuccessful in finding a major publisher willing to chronicle the true story of this significant period from my vantage point.

The clarity and evidence-based truth of @IanCLucas’s voice contrasts sharply with l carefully cited witness weaseling to Parliament. He succeeds at moving discourse beyond a mostly pointless debate of whether digital “worked” for Brexit/Trump toward whether it was *legal* (no!)

Of course I appreciated @IanCLucas’s review of #TheGreatHack in his book #DigitalGangsters
