How Not to Get Yourself Killed in an in-game eBook in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. It can be found in a hidden floor stash in Adam Jensen's bedroom.

Transcript[]

Jensen,

Since there's NO POINT trying to convince you NOT to do what you're planning to do, I FIGURED I could at least STOP YOU from getting killed too quickly. That IS, after all, why you CONSTANTLY COME TO ME for help, isn't it?

This device contains data I've collected—LINKS which may or MAY NOT support your THEORY that extremely wealthy individuals have manipulated events and caused everything bad that's happened to us.

Maybe sifting through it will let you find them.
-- Pritchard
