    Hello everyone,

    I am a Junior in uni and theres a writing sample on radical fanaticism I would like to submit to a cybersecurity special program for admission .

    Could you suggest me something to read that will help me get familiar with online radicalization and recruitment?, cyber propaganda or disinformation?, cyberterrorism and hacking?, echo chambers and dark web activities?

    From my research I gathered a couple of titles like:

    "Going Dark: The Secret Social Lives of Extremists" by Julia Ebner

    "Violent Extremism Online: New Perspectives on Terrorism and the Internet" edited by Anne Aly, Stuart Macdonald, and others

    "Algorithms of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism" by Safiya Umoja Noble

    So far thinking of going with the second one.

    If you are knowledgeable in the cyber space I would very much appreciate you recommend me the one you read. Thank you for your help

    1. Oh my god I have the PERFECT book for you: Black Pill by Elle Reeve. It explains how radical online communities form and self-radicalize. Meepsheep’s law!
