Hard to convince friends to do this. Wish there was a trick to it.

I know! I actually just revised the title and cover image of my book to make it more beginner-friendlly and answer the "why should I care" question: DISENGAGE: Escape the Leash of Big Tech, Scams and Surveillance—Everyday Resistance for the Digital Underdog. I also plan to add.a glossary, and when I have time I'll revise the whole book with that goal in mind.

The book is free! It was a passion project my a retired journalist (me). Maybe it will help convince them?
