I love my Kindle, I love my Kindle IPhone App, I love my Kindle Android app and I love my Kindle computer app. By the way did I mention that I love my Kindle? :-) Thanks for pointing out the free gift of weekend reading.

John, Pardon the rant but what is the irony here? I mean I suppose you were hoping that you could just download an ePub copy, right? So far as I can tell the author hasn't produced the book in that format. It is Kindle-only which is not my preference but for goodness sakes as "security people" must we always find something to complain about? I'm not sure what privacy concerns you have with Amazon but it didn't take much info at all to create an account and download the app (an e-mail address, which doesn't even require verification; a name which you can make up; and a password). What privacy are you giving away, your IP and user-agent? As a security community we'd probably get a lot more traction with our users if we didn't come off as negative, know-it-alls. Done ranting, -------------Baylor University------------- Derek Tonkin Information Security Analyst Information Technology Services - Security derek_tonkin () baylor edu 254-710-7061 ---------------Sic 'em Bears--------------- -----Original Message----- From: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of John Ladwig Sent: Friday, January 27, 2012 1:22 PM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: Re: [SECURITY] Free Download of Matt Ivester's Book Available Now (until Jan. 30)! And, you can't download the free book without logging in to Amazon. And, near as I can tell, it's Kindle- or Kindle-apps-only. In honor of Data Privacy Day. The irony, it drips. -jml -----Original Message----- From: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of Valerie Vogel Sent: Friday, January 27, 2012 12:34 PM To: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv; John Ladwig Subject: [SECURITY] Free Download of Matt Ivester's Book Available Now (until Jan. 30)!
