Reply to comment by JetPunk in TIL that Fahrenheit 451, a book about a distopian future where books are banned and burned, was banned and burned by the apartheid regime in South Africa with other tens of thousands. by open_closet

I actually accidentally stumbled upon the anarchists cookbook at my local library WAY back in the day. Even then, it blew my young mind and I knew I was looking at some heavy shit.

I remember the cookbook had detailed schematics to build all sorts of heinous shit. One such device was called "the blotto box". Supposedly you'd make this thing, plug it into your phone line and not only would it make every phone in your area code ring but would shock people nearest to you.
