Original titleMafiaboy: How I Cracked the Internet and Why It's Still Broken
In early 2000, the websites of CNN, Yahoo, E*Trade, Dell, Amazon, and eBay ground to a halt for several hours, causing panic everywhere from the White House to suburbia and around the world. After two months and hundreds of hours of wiretapping, the FBI and international law enforcement agencies staged a late-night raid to apprehend the most wanted man in cyberspace—a 15-year-old kid. Mafiaboy, a.k.a. Michael Calce. This is his riveting true story. Calce and award-winning journalist Craig Silverman weave a fast-paced narrative that is equal parts true crime thriller and exposé.
