Snowden's box : trust in the age of surveillance / by Bruder, Jessica,author.; Maharidge, Dale,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."In the summer of 2013, the world was riveted by Edward Snowden's leak of millions of classified documents detailing the US government's massive and secret electronic surveillance program, in which the NSA had infiltrated tech companies, communication systems, emails and phones to spy on, among others, its own citizens.
