Jolly Roger's Cookbook

From DocDroppers

The Jolly Roger's Cookbook is a digital collection of text files relating to the subjects of theft, computer hacking, the use and creation of explosives, as well as more diverse subjects. It is currently distributed from the website "The Anarchist Cookbook", and is often confused with, and mistakenly called, the actual Anarchist's Cookbook, written by William Powell in 1971 as a protest against the Vietnam War. It is also seen by some as a preservation of freedom by providing the tools necessary to combat any government exercising authoritarian or tyrannical power. It was originally transmitted and updated via hundreds of BBSes but can now be found at various sources on the Internet.

Although there are many variations to the Jolly Roger text file, the most popular is V.666. All Jolly Rogers cookbooks contain detailed instructions on creating explosives, obsolete hacking and phreaking information. Depending on the version, sometimes there is an emphasis of one matter over another. For instance, one set may have more files or information about fighting hand to hand, while another set would have more writings about anarchist perspectives or political overtones about the government. Other versions are about causing trouble or mayhem for the purposes of "getting even" or revenge. Some versions state that actions portrayed in the handbook should not be attempted at home due to occurrences of people injuring themselves.

The files contained in the book have varying degrees of accuracy.
