ISIS Smart Phone App is mentioned halfway down.
Ongoing Threat To The Whole Internet – John McAfee: ‘As Serious As It Gets – Absolutely No Defenses In Place'
“I feel certain that the IS news app was the source of the DDoS attack,” cybersecurity expert John McAfee tells IBTimes UK. “One of my researchers has discovered encrypted packets being sent to the Amaq Agency news app. “We found the 13 Root Server Addresses in the app memory while the app was running. The addresses did not appear inside the static app. The addresses therefore had to be decrypted at run time. Why would they encrypt the addresses inside the app unless they were trying to hide the true purpose of the app? This is the smoking gun we were looking for.”

This book is a re-packaging of Sanders' 1997 book, Outsider in the House, with a new introduction and a new afterword written for the September 2015 re-release. Our 2015 excerpts are from the new introduction and a new afterword. The bulk of the book is the same autobiography as the 1997 book — Bernie's rise to political power through campaigns for Mayor of Burlington and then his election to the U.S. House — which we discuss in our review of the earlier version — so we'll focus in this review on the 2016 political campaign.
Sanders describes in this book purposes of political campaigns other than winning election — such as “raising the right issues” and “shifting the framework of the debate.” In the 2015-2016 presidential campaign, Sanders has single-handedly created a meaningful Democratic primary, where the “right issues” get discussed because Sanders' candidacy has “shifted the framework of the debate.”
