In June 2013, reporter and political commentator Glenn Greenwald published a series of reports in the Guardian which rocked the world.
The reports revealed shocking truths about the extent to which the National Security Agency had been gathering information about US citizens and intercepting communication worldwide, and were based on documents leaked by former National Security Agency employee Edward Snowden to Greenwald.
Including new revelations from documents entrusted to Greenwald by Snowden, this essential book tells the story of Snowden and the NSA and examines the far-reaching consequences of the government's surveillance program, both in the US and abroad.

I took a moment to reflect on the title after finishing this book, which examines the NSA surveillance programs and the tactics they use to download online communications. It's not just Snowden the Whistleblower who has trouble hiding, but all of us. As we are in an era of social media and a near-constant connection to the Internet and our phones, our private lives are no longer private in this era of social media and social connections. The title perfectly describes the book.
