00:00 The Unabomber was a complex figure, seen as both an environmental visionary and an unrelenting killer.

03:36 In 1978, the first person to come into contact with the Unabomber's bomb was a security officer named Terry Maker, and over the course of a 17-year killing spree, the Unabomber targeted individuals who were involved in technology or the destruction of nature.

07:30 Ted Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber, targeted individuals associated with the destruction of nature and the advancement of technology, and his 17-year bombing campaign was eventually connected through his letters claiming responsibility for the crimes and the inscription "FC" on bomb parts, leading to his arrest in 1996.

11:11 Ted Kaczynski pleaded guilty to the charges against him and accepted eight life sentences without parole, and is currently serving his sentence at the ADX in Florence, Colorado; there is evidence suggesting that the public perception of Kaczynski as a schizophrenic was created by his brother and legal team to avoid the death penalty, and Kaczynski ultimately chose to plead guilty in order to defend his sanity and his manifesto.

14:59 Ted Kaczynski's manifesto, while not the ramblings of a madman, contains salient points about the negative impact of technology on society, particularly during the industrial revolution.

18:51 Ted Kaczynski believed that society has become dependent on technology, to the detriment of the individual and local communities, and the only way to stop this is through a violent revolution.

22:44 Ted Kaczynski's motive for sending bombs was likely a combination of his anger towards the direction of society and his desire to kill people, although his diagnosis of schizophrenia is not definitive and may be a disservice to those with the condition. The publication of his manifesto in print newspapers was ironic given his criticism of technology, but it allowed him to spread his message before the internet became the primary source of news.

26:28 The Washington Post and the New York Times agreed to publish Ted Kaczynski's 35,000-word manifesto, which became a sensation and allowed for potential identification and tracking of the Unabomber.
