"Hack To The Future: How World Governments Relentlessly Pursue And Domesticate Hackers" By Emily Crose Releases In November

Hack to the Future by Emily Crose provides a summary of the history of the United States government's varied involvement with hacker culture, examining key events that have shaped public and government views of the hacking community. She takes readers on a journey from the early days when hackers were seen as social outcasts to their current position as significant figures in global geopolitics.

Emily Crose highlights crucial moments such as the release of the Morris worm and the Melissa virus, which fundamentally changed how hackers were perceived and treated by society, the state, and even within their own subculture. The book reveals how different government agencies, including the National Security Agency (NSA) and NASA, interacted with domestic hackers, moving from adversaries to collaborators.

This 320-page book shows how what began as a niche hobby for socially awkward tech enthusiasts has grown into a powerful tool for governments, especially in geopolitics. Emily's expert insights offer readers a unique understanding of how the US government has used this subculture to achieve political and strategic aims.

It will be available in hardcover format and is currently listed for pre-order across several platforms such as Barnes & Noble, Target, and Wiley's official site.

Key highlights of the book:

• Learn how major virus releases changed public and government attitudes towards hackers.
