Write Even When The World Is Chaotic.

No One Should Do A Job He Can Do In His Sleep.

I'm 17 Years Old. I'm Not A Straight-a Student Or Anything. Even So, I Figured Out How To Make An Internet That They Can't Wiretap. I Figured Out How To Jam Their Person-tracking Technology. I Can Turn Innocent People Into Suspects And Turn Guilty People Into Innocents In Their Eyes. I Could Get Metal Onto An Airplane Or Beat A No-fly List. I Figured This Stuff Out By Looking At The Web And By Thinking About It. If I Can Do It, Terrorists Can Do It. They Told Us They Took Away Our Freedom To Make Us Safe. Do You Feel Safe?

Never Underestimate The Determination Of A Kid Who Is Time-rich And Cash-poor.

The Opposite Of Esprit D'escalier Is The Way That Life's Embarrassments Come Back To Haunt Us Even After They're Long Past. I Could Remember Every Stupid Thing I'd Ever Said Or Done, Recall Them With Picture-perfect Clarity. Any Time I Was Feeling Low, I'd Naturally Start To Remember Other Times I Felt That Way, A Hit Parade Of Humiliations Coming One After Another To My Mind.

I Can't Go Underground For A Year, Ten Years, My Whole Life, Waiting For Freedom To Be Handed To Me. Freedom Is Something You Have To Take For Yourself.
