Edward Snowden, the man who risked everything to expose the US government's system of mass surveillance, reveals for the first time the story of his life, including how he helped to build that system and what motivated him to try to bring it down. In 2013, twenty-nine-year-old Edward Snowden shocked the world when he broke with the American intelligence establishment and revealed that the United States government was secretly pursuing the means to collect every single phone call, text message, and email. The result would be an unprecedented system of mass surveillance with the ability to pry into the private lives of every person on earth. Six years later, Snowden reveals for the very first time how he helped to build this system and why he was moved to expose it.
En 2013, Edward Snowden est devenu le lanceur d'alerte le plus célèbre de la planète. Il a tout risqué pour révéler au monde le projet du gouvernement américain : un programme secret de surveillance capable de s'infiltrer dans la vie privée de chacun. Porté par une passion pour la vérité, Edward Snowden raconte comment il a participé à la construction d'un système de surveillance de masse et ce qui l'a conduit à le dénoncer. Un témoignage exceptionnel, appelé à devenir un classique de notre temps.
