Hi Libtech, Yesterday VICE published my review of jailed hacktivist journo Barrett Brown's new book. _Keep Rootin' for Putin_ skewers pundits and argues for the revolutionary potential of the Internet. Given the media gag on Brown, his book couldn't directly address his legal case, but it implicitly shows why his case so important. About half the article reviews the book (which includes pro-Internet material), and about half addresses his court battles, which are of importance to people on this list.
