Книга адресована читателю, имеющему опыт конструирования электронных устройств. – Но зачем это? – с недоумением спросит современный пользователь, – ведь все можно купить… Далеко не все – можно, и меньше того – следует. Прежде всего, потому, что многие из прежних запретов на средства самозащиты не исчезли, а лишь поменяли форму: из административных они стали «рыночными». Так, недоступный советскому…
