Glenn Greenwald is the author, most recently, of With Liberty and Justice for Some and A Tragic Legacy. A former constitutional lawyer and a columnist for The Guardian until October 2013, he earned numerous awards for his commentary and investigative reporting, including the top 2013 investigative journalism award from the Online News Association, the Esso Award for Excellence in Reporting (the Brazilian equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize), and the 2013 Pioneer Award from Electronic Frontier Foundation. He also received the 2013 George Polk Award for National Security Reporting and was named by Foreign Policy as one of the Top 100 Global Thinkers. Greenwald’s writing has appeared in many newspapers and political news magazines, including The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times and The American Conservative. In early 2014, he cofounded a new global media outlet, The Intercept.
In May 2013, Glenn Greenwald set out for Hong Kong to meet an anonymous source who claimed to have astonishing evidence of pervasive government spying and insisted on communicating only through heavily encrypted channels. That source turned out to be the 29-year-old NSA contractor Edward Snowden, and his revelations about the agency’s widespread, systemic overreach proved to be some of the most explosive and consequential news in recent history, triggering a fierce debate over national security and information privacy. As the arguments rage on and the government considers various proposals for reform, it is clear that we have yet to see the full impact of Snowden’s disclosures.
Now for the first time, Greenwald fits all the pieces together, recounting his high-intensity ten-day trip to Hong Kong, examining the broader implications of the surveillance detailed in his reporting for The Guardian, and revealing fresh information on the NSA’s unprecedented abuse of power with never-before-seen documents entrusted to him by Snowden himself.
Going beyond NSA specifics, Greenwald also takes on the establishment media, excoriating their habitual avoidance of adversarial reporting on the government and their failure to serve the interests of the people. Finally, he asks what it means both for individuals and for a nation’s political health when a government pries so invasively into the private lives of its citizens—and considers what safeguards and forms of oversight are necessary to protect democracy in the digital age. Coming at a landmark moment in American history, No Place to Hide is a fearless, incisive, and essential contribution to our understanding of the U.S. surveillance state.

评分 评分格伦·格林沃德(Glenn Greenwald)兼具戏剧家的激情和批评家的冷静。作为一名资深记者,他知道何时该将镜头拉近,审视这出微型戏剧里的每一个角色,何时又该将镜头推远,籍由这面“棱镜”透视公共权力对个人隐私日夜不停的窥伺。他尊重事实,同时也深知如果事实不能唤起行动,一...
Glenn Greenwald my hero.
评分前面还挺好看的。也可能是我英语水平不好,后面写得很长,但意思差不多,比较凌乱。和电影穿插看,好懂。
评分花了三天把这本书刷完,果然看幕后故事让人动力十足。事实描述部分精彩纷呈,五星推荐,论证说理部分(主要是第四章)有些乏力甚至逻辑混乱,比较可惜,扣掉一星。此书充分揭露了米帝政客和媒体们的道貌岸然。当然,米帝的自由在于这样的书照样顺利出街,并荣登畅销书榜单。至于美国的主流民意到底如何看待NSA的所作所为,我不敢妄下判断,somehow,我觉得还是dont care的多。。。
