* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes.

*As you read this summary, you will discover how the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) spied on you.

*You will also discover : that the whistleblower Citizenfour worked for the NSA; that the NSA forced certain companies to disclose their customers' personal information; that America's largest corporations willingly participated in spying on the public; that the NSA also spied on other countries; that journalists who made the case public were censored and intimidated.

*On September 11, 2001, the United States suffered the most violent terrorist attack in its history. The U.S. government and the National Security Agency (NSA) then decided to work twice as hard to protect their citizens. However, everything was done in a hurry and the means of listening in place were contrary to the American Constitution. These new practices are then only a pretext to monitor and control the population. In the face of these fraudulent practices, voices are raised, notably that of a whistleblower hiding under the enigmatic name of Citizenfour. Are you ready to understand how and why you have been a victim of espionage?
