"Ghost in the Wires" by Kevin Mitnick with William L. Simon - Audiobook read by Ray Porter.
This is the audiobook equivalent of a page-turner, at least partly thanks to an excellent reading by Ray Porter, or a feature-length episode of "Darknet Diaries" (without @jackrhysider). It's odd to hear some of the non-prose read, but funny as one recognises it, though not so funny as having the codes read sounding like backmasked messages opening a reverse shell to the brain.
A lot has changed since Kevin's adventures in the late 1980s and 1990s, but another lot... hasn't and its important lessons remain relevant.
Being read this so soon after Richard Feynman's "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" provided a strange insight into the different paths taken by two similar minds in different - but in many ways not so different - places and times.

The USA’s NSA now has a podcast called “No Such Podcast”
Quite an apt title, and I’m sure no secrets are going to be exposed, apart from those already that have leaked out. But interesting to see some PR from the agency.
They state this about the podcast:

Aktuell ganz viel Wind um #NSA #Cybersecurity #Tipp, das #Handy wöchentlich neu zu starten - #Fazit: Es schadet jedenfalls nicht, das zu tun, schützt aber auch nicht vor allen möglichen #Cyberbedrohungen. Für die allermeisten Menschen viel wichtiger sind regelmäßige OS #Updates, keine Installation von #Schrottsoftware, sparsamer Umgang mit #Berechtigungen und Einschalten von #Bluetooth und #Ortung nur dann, wenn man es tatsächlich braucht.

You thought it was bad enough when #NSA said, "well, we only collect the metadata and protect identities of US Citizens."
How about having an Israeli spy outfit provide the targeting information of any vulnerability they find on your site, not to you, but to everyone else, along with a sample of your database? @acluofmichigan @aclu
yes, the folks in Cambridge who provide the cover story own an #Israeli company they bought with hedge fund money. This bs is from the internet-census website.
