Many a young anarchist has been killed or seriously injured while trying to make the stuff. When Nobel's factories make it, many people were killed by the all-to-frequent factory explosions.

Information on many other types of explosives can also be found online. One example surfaced shortly after the Oklahoma City bombing. A message was transmitted on the Internet that offered information detailing the components and materials needed to construct a bomb identical to the one used in Oklahoma City, as well as complete details on how the bomb was used, and how it could be better.
