Hi Cory! My name is Hannah and Little Brother is one of my favorite books. (I even quoted it in my thesis!) I have a couple questions about it though.

  1. You've spoken out against DDoS attacks before, on the grounds that they are at odds with free speech. Reasonable, but much of Little Brother is about attempts to clog and take down the DHS. What do you think is the major difference between the two and how do you reconcile it?

  2. The protest is one of the most memorable scenes in the book. Obviously it was written before the Occupy movement began, but there are definitely some similarities. Do you think that scene resonates differently now, in the wake of OWS? Did you expect it to become so topical so quickly?

Thanks, and take care! <3

Thanks for answering! Are we friends now?

I saw the copies of LB at the OWS library, thought it was very awesome. I'm super excited for Homeland!
