I don't see anywhere in here where you get the source files for the banned books. Love this idea, would like to learn more.

Config files are here:

Currently I haven't gotten it to work after an update to Ubuntu, but I'm working on updating things and making an easy install script.

For now there is also this site:

Hey I know this is a long shot of reaching you. My names Alex and I co-founded a non-profit called Denver Street Stories. We’re a podcast/platform aimed to uplift homeless folks by changing the narrative of how people see them through interviews, storytelling, and discussion. We’re VERY new and a podcast is our main platform but an idea, Luca, the other co-founder had was about giving homeless folks free access to the internet. I noticed your work from tiktok (we commented as denverstreetstories on a video of you cooking food for Christmas) and I’d really like to open a line of communication. I feel like you could really help us work towards making our goal a reality. I’d love to talk more. Our email is denverstreetstories@gmail.com

"If for some reason you need internet access on the device again, there are instructions on how to bypass it later on."

Are these instructions missing?

Updated the instructions, forgot to say what you needed to do. But comment out the lines in /etc/rc.local, and you will get internet access again. Uncomment them to get the server up and running again.
