"The Unabomber" is officially responsible for one of the early terrorism bombings attacks on US soil.

Theodore John Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber, is an American domestic terrorist and former mathematics professor.

Some commentators have made the point that he was likely a subject in an MKULTRA program, since from the fall of 1959 through the spring of 1962 he was under supervision for an brainwashing experiment at Harvard by psychologist Henry Murray who was employed by the OSS during WWII.[1]

According to the FBI, Kaczynski, was only caught because he sent a 35,000 word essay to the FBI explaining his motives and views, which helped to identify him. Before that, he had been operating for 17 years with the FBI having very little idea or leads to his identity.[2]

“[...] The Industrial Revolution has radically altered man's environment and way of life, and it is only to be expected that as technology is increasingly applied to the human body and mind, man himself will be altered as radically as his environment and way of life have been.”
Theodore Kaczynski [3]
