The Watchman
I finally got some time to read the book The Watchman: The Twisted Life and Crimes of Serial Hacker Kevin Poulsen and I've got to say that I was dissappointed. I expected a good read from Littman but sadly got a story about a lame script kiddie that stalked celebrities and physically broke into Pacific Bell buildings and stole computer equipment. Littman protrays Poulsen as a hacker when in fact he is a cracker, breaking into phone companies databases and rigging radio contests. The story is exciting at times but still, I don't recommend it.
My Rating (1-10): 4
