One of the most coveted tools in a spy's arsenal, a zeroday has the power to silently spy on your iPhone, dismantle the safety controls at a chemical plant, alter an election, and shut down the electric grid (just ask Ukraine).For decades, under cover of classification levels and nondisclosure agreements, the United States government became the world's dominant hoarder of zerodays. U.S. government agents paid top dollarfirst thousands, and later millions of dollarsto hackers willing to sell their lockpicking code and their silence. Then the United States lost control of its hoard and the market. Now those zerodays are in the hands of hostile nations and mercenaries who do not care if your vote goes missing, your clean water is contaminated, or our nuclear plants melt down.Filled with spies, hackers, arms dealers, and a few unsung heroes, written like a thriller and a reference, This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends is an astonishing feat of journalism. Based on years of reporting and hundreds of interviews, Nicole Perlroth lifts the curtain on a market in shadow, revealing the urgent threat faced by us all if we cannot bring the global cyberarms race to heel.
