    About this ebook

    'Permanent record' by Edward Snowden is his memoir of the dilemma he faced when he came across a violation of privacy at the hands of NSA while working as a CIA officer. The book was The Sunday Times Top Ten Bestseller.
    Snowden had leaked several confidential documents to the press back in 2013, and an international debate had ensued regarding protecting and respecting the privacy of the citizens. He again made headlines in September 2019 with the release of his memoir, where he describes the back-story of the event that led him to finally take the bold step and risk everything to ensure the injustice at the hands of those tasked with prevailing justice, came to light.
