Bernard Keane has been Crikey's correspondent and politics editor in Canberra since 2008, writing on politics, media and economics. He was educated at the University of Sydney, where he studied history and failed to meet Helen Razer, who was there at the same time. Before joining Crikey he was a policy adviser and speechwriter in transport and communications. He is the author of the ebook War on the Internet and an incessant torrent of analysis, reportage and commentary on politics and public policy for Crikey. His first book A Short History of Stupid was co-authored with Helen Razer and published by Allen & Unwin in 2014. Surveillance State is his second book.

But above all this is an entertaining page-turner. -- Paul Bongiorno, political journalist Keane's knowledge of the online frontier and its implications for democracy can't be faulted. * The Saturday Age *
