Above you’ll find links to downloadable editions of the text of Little Brother. These downloads are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-ShareAlike license, which lets you share it, remix it, and share your remixes, provided that you do so on a noncommercial basis. Some people don’t understand why I do this — so check out this post if you want my topline explanation for why I do this crazy thing.
It’s kind of a tradition around here that my readers convert my ebooks to their favorite formats and send them to me here, and it’s one that I love! If you’ve converted these files to another format, send them to me and I’ll host them, but before you do, make sure you read the following:
- Only one conversion per format, first come, first serve. That means that if someone’s already converted the file to a Femellhebber 3000 document, that’s the one you’re going to find here. I just don’t know enough about esoteric readers to adjudicate disputes about what the ideal format is for your favorite device.
- Make sure include a link to the reader as well. When you send me an ebook file, make sure that you include a link to the website for the reader technology as well so that I can include it below.
- No cover art. The text of this book is freely copyable, the cover, not so much. The rights to it are controlled by my publisher, so don’t include it with your file.
- No DRM. The Creative Commons license prohibits sharing the file with “DRM” (sometimes called “copy-protection”) on it, and that’s fine by me. Don’t send me the book with DRM on it. If you’re converting to a format that has a DRM option, make sure it’s switched off.

Hello! I’m a french young girl, and I’ve read your book. I really wanted to tell you that I love it!! Not only it taught me many things about hacking and networks, it also make me like maths, history and philosophy, so I’m very thankful! And I’m even more thankful because it has completely changed my point of view (maybe I was thinking like old people…?)
Thank you very much! I’m really looking forward to your next book!
Oh Brother! what a great read.
Who is watching you? and are you watching them?
:)
Thanks to an article on Punto Informatico(1) I decided to read this book. In its original language, with google translate and merriam webster always open :-)
It was really fun and interesting. Thank you Cory!

Ok so I actually read the entire book in pdf.
/Then/ I decided to buy a copy on amazon :-)
I liked the book, so I thought it was fair to purchase a hardcopy edition of it, since the author was so kind to let me download (“try”) it for free.
Plus I’ve always read paper books, so when I read an e-book I usually like to have a hard copy of it…
So in the end Cory is right: free e-books help selling physical books. :)
