"Everybody Has Something to Hide succeeds because it does not traffic in fear or abstraction. It explains, clearly, practically, and remarkably, why privacy matters and how to reclaim it. If we want a future where democracy endures, we must use and defend the tools that make free expression possible."

-- Ro Khanna, Member of Congress

Everybody has something to hide. Not because they have done something wrong, but because privacy equals freedom. Everybody Has Something to Hide: Why and How to Use Signal to Preserve Your Privacy, Security, and Well-Being explains why secure communication now matters to ordinary people, not just spies, activists, or criminals, and shows exactly how to take control of your messaging using Signal.

You probably heard about Signal when government officials misused it. If nothing else, this book will prevent you from making the same mistakes. It explains, in plain language, what Signal is, how it works, and why it has become the gold standard for private messaging worldwide. It makes clear what Signal protects, what it does not, and how small mistakes can still expose sensitive information.

Through vivid, relatable case studies, the book shows how different people use Signal in real life. Journalists protect sources. Doctors safeguard patient conversations. Attorneys preserve confidentiality. Educators communicate without surveillance. Politicians avoid opposition research traps. Activists organize safely. Families protect personal and financial information. Everyday people reduce harassment, stalking, and data exploitation. Each scenario connects technology to human consequences.

This is not a technical manual for engineers. It is a practical guide for normal people who use messaging every day. Step by step, it covers setup, verification, contacts, disappearing messages, group chats, backups, screen security, and common myths. The book is written with clarity, urgency, and respect for the reader's intelligence by Guy Kawasaki, chief evangelist of Canva and former chief evangelist of Apple, and Madisun Nuismer, the co-producer of the Remarkable People podcast.

It makes the case that secure messaging is not extreme or political. It is prudent. It is modern hygiene. It is an act of self-preservation. You do not need to disappear. You do not need to fear the future. You simply need better tools and better understanding. This book gives you both.
