What We Can Learn From The Adobe E-Reader Mess

To perform these tests we ran Wireshark, an open source program that records network traffic, allowing researchers to analyze it. With Wireshark running we opened Adobe Digital Editions and performed some tasks such as adding books to the library, reading books, and deleting books. On each start of the software it would send back metadata about the previous session such as titles of books, pages read, time spent reading and more.
