A reading that I downloaded about 5 years ago. The YouTube link got nuked, and another user posted mirrors of it (but they're MP4 mirrors). This is the first time I've posted the MP3 if I recall correctly. Uncle Ted was right.
If you're reading the Unabomber you should definitely read Zerzan. His is a more intellectual, well rounded critique.
His six major books are Elements of Refusal (1988), Future Primitive and Other Essays (1994), Running on Emptiness (2002), Against Civilization: Readings and Reflections (2005), Twilight of the Machines (2008), and Why hope? The Stand Against Civilization (2015)

The two were even friends.
Zerzan takes it further than industrialism into civilization itself. Which is commonly said to have begun with the agricultural revolution.
