Books like Fahrenheit 451: Alternative Assessment for Literature

Read this when I was much younger. It REALLY bored me at the time. I think about this book rather often, now that I'm older. As far fetched as this idea is, it becomes more achievable every day with the social media, electronic archiving, and cloud computing. I won't spoil it for those who haven't read the book, but the theme her is NOT a good one. The implementation "book burning" seems ludicrous. What's crazy is that that same agenda could one day be accomplished with the click of a button. And it's BOOM! all our history and heritage is gone...
