Ted Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber, is an American domestic terrorist, primitivist and former mathematics professor. He was accepted to Harvard College at the age of 16 and after graduating and earning his PhD, he taught at UC Berkeley for three years. He then moved to a small cabin in Montana to pursue a simple life. While in Montana, Kaczynski began sending mail bombs to people associated with universities, airlines, and the advancement of modern technology. He mailed a total of 16 bombs, killing three people and injuring 23 others. Kaczynski's bombing campaign came under investigation by the FBI, who employed over 150 people in the most expensive FBI investigation ever conducted at the time. Kaczynski's manifesto, an anarcho-primitivist essay, was published in The Washington Post on the condition that he would desist from terrorism. He was eventually arrested in 1996 and later imprisoned at ADX Florence in Colorado. (Full article...)
