'We need more warriors like Carrie' TARANA BURKE, founder of the
MeToo movement 'In the age of doxxing, revenge porn, and misogynist
trolls, this book is required reading' ESQUIRE Nobody's Victim is
an unflinching look at a hidden world most people don't know
exists-one of stalking, blackmail, and sexual violence, online and
off-and the incredible story of how one lawyer, determined to fight
back, turned her own hell into a revolution. Nobody's Victim
invites readers to join Carrie Goldberg on the front lines of the
war against sexual violence and privacy violations as her law firm
sues the hell out of tech companies, schools, and sexual predators.
Her battleground is the courtroom; her crusade is to transform
clients from victims into warriors. In gripping detail, Carrie
shares the diabolical ways her clients are attacked and how she,
through her unique combination of relentless advocacy, badass
risk-taking, and unique client-empowerment, pursues justice for
them all. There is the ex-boyfriend who made fake bomb threats in a
client's name, causing a national panic; the girl who was sexually
assaulted on school grounds and then suspended when she reported
the attack; and the guy who used a dating app to send more than
1,200 men to his ex's home and office for sex. Carrie also shares
her own shattering story about why she began her work and became
the lawyer she needed. Riveting and essential, Nobody's Victim is a
bold and timely analysis of victim protection in the era of the
Internet. This book is an urgent warning of a coming crisis, a
predictor of imminent danger, and a weapon to take back control and
protect ourselves-both online and off. 'A rallying cry for privacy
justice . . . chilling . . . take-no-prisoners and warmly
gregarious' New York Times *Perfect for fans of She Said by Jodi
Kantor and Megan Twohey, The Whisper Network by Chandler Baker and

think women need to hear over and over again," she says. "Like
multiple orgasms."
'A rallying cry for privacy justice' New York Times 'We need more
warriors like Carrie' Tarana Burke, founder of the MeToo movement
In an era of doxing, revenge porn and online stalking, the law is
failing us. Tech companies are untouchable and often women are
persecuted. Carrie Goldberg built her law firm on battling these
unprecedented cases - from stalkers haunting their exes through
social media and dating apps, to schools suspending girls who
report sexual assault, to trolls making fake bomb threats in their
victims' names. Here, she tells her clients' stories alongside her
own remarkable journey to become the lawyer she once needed.
Gripping and inspiring, Nobody's Victim shows how we must rewire
the legal system for the age of the internet and gives us the
weapons to fight back. *Perfect for fans of She Said by Jodi Kantor
and Megan Twohey, The Whisper Network by Chandler Baker and The
Good Fight*
