When Toronto novelist Ian Thornton drops two dollars in the cowboy hat of a mysterious panhandler, they bond and Thornton falls into a nether world through Alice's rabbit hole. The man turns out to be legendary Anonymous hacktivist, Commander X, on the run from the FBI. Christopher Mark Doyon, a.k.a. Commander X, is one of the most iconic, divisive, and outspoken figures in the history of the international hacktivist network. The story follows the next year of Commander X plotting to escape Canada to find his freedom. Acclaimed author Ian Thornton is ready to tell his own once-in-a-lifetime real-life tale of Mister Robot and reminds us that we should never discount the human at shin-level on the sidewalk. He or she might just be about to de-throne a Middle Eastern dictator, bring the Vatican, Turkey or Israel to a standstill, propel Black Lives Matter into the consciousness or hack an American election. "It's revolution, ma'an! Get used to it."
