About This Book

Oilspill dotcom was reissued as The Accidental Activist by Three Clover Press.  The author recommends that you consider reading The Accidental Activist.

The world is no longer defined by geographical borders, but by the actions of vast multinational corporations. Matt Fielding, a successful computer programmer, has never entertained such thoughts until his new girlfriend is suddenly arrested for libel against a huge oil conglomerate. Separated from his burgeoning romance and stunned by the David .v. Goliath odds being played out in the British legal system, Matt harnesses his talents to level the playing field. For the first time in history, the Internet is utilized for grassroots advocacy and the attention of the world is drawn to an epic court battle between a billion dollar corporation and a few individuals who refuse to be silenced. Alongside the court case, Oilspill dotcom humorously describes the transformation of a carefree yuppie, empowered first by romance and then by a genuine desire to change the world, one pixel at a time.
