Cory Doctorow's Little Brother showed the dangers of a police state run amuck, and showed how public-spirited techies fight back. Now the Libertarian Futurist Society has given Little Brother the 2009 Prometheus Award for libertarian SF. Image by Richard Wilkinson.

I did enjoy the book and got copies for some young hellraisers-in-training. Yeah, he lays The Message on very Thick, but the idea that we the people should be in control of our own information systems is an important one.
