Since the start of the Trump era, the United States and the Western world has finally begun to wake up to the threat of online warfare and the attacks from Russia. The question no one seems to be able to answer is: What can the West do about it?

Central and Eastern European states, however, have been aware of the threat for years. Nina Jankowicz has advised these governments on the front lines of the information war. The lessons she learnt from that fight—and from her attempts to get US congress to act—make for essential listening.

How to Lose the Information War takes the listener on a journey through five Western governments’ responses to Russian information warfare tactics—all of which have failed. She journeys into the campaigns the Russian operatives run, and shows how we can better understand the motivations behind these attacks and how to beat them. Above all, this book shows what is at stake: the future of civil discourse and democracy, and the value of truth itself.

Most relevant  
This was one of the poorest narrations I’ve heard. If a narrator is going to “voice act” quotes, they need to have that well mapped and thought out. Definitely not the case with this one and it distracted often.
Jankowicz offers relevant insights into the conflict of the information environment, however, muddies her conclusions and opens them up to partisan criticisms by laying most of the current divides on Republicans and specifically President Trump. She passes over many relevant examples in her conclusion where Democrats have also propagated falsehood, which would have strengthened her points.

Poor narration, biased opinion, still some relevant conclusions

I enjoyed the book and learned some things about misinformation. I would recommend to everyone. However I could have done without the attempt at different voices.

Disinformation is dismantling Democracy. We underestimate how much we are influenced and over estimate how much we can influence others.

Cyber enabled PsyOp and Intelligence activity is the active measures our enemies are using.

Haters will say it's reversed.

Note to narrators - you make it hard to listen to you when you do accents. Your Estonian and your Donald Trump accents are so cringy!

Good story terrible narration
