4.5 stars: very practical and enjoyable.
The information: a good dose of practical information on how to be a more privacy-friendly designer. Since I work at a company that focusses on privacy, there wasn't a lot in this book that I didn't know yet, but the practicality and examples were definitely worth reading.
The readability: the book was well-written, and the visual slogans throughout were really nice.
The structure: the build-up of the book was good, and I really liked the 8 principles of design that Schep introduces. The last part, however, acted like it was part of the book but was really more of a dictionary, with copy-pasted information throughout the story.
Best part: the last principle of design, because it put 'privacy' in a bit of a broader perspective.
Some minus points for the untranslated Dutch words that popped up on a few occasions.
