Most of the article seems to be based on an interview with a certain Sean Fleming. He’s a research fellow at the University of Nottingham, who is writing the first book-length study of the Unabomber’s ideology.

From the article: «If Kaczynski did raise valid points, Fleming says, it is because he took them from others, including the French sociologist Jacques Ellul, whose 1954 text, The Technological Society, electrified the bomber as a young man.»
