This is pretty cool.

The idea was that if you lived somewhere that banned books you thought were important, you could theoretically stick a digital copy of the book on one of these light bulbs. Then you could go install it somewhere in your community. As long as the light bulb is switched on, then anyone in the vicinity can still access the banned material assuming they have an electronic device with WiFi. Since the device is a light bulb, it would be difficult to detect and likely to go unnoticed. A cyberpunk digital dead drop. These devices are also fairly inexpensive, so leaving them around town as is hopefully not very cost prohibitive.

I'm generally down on the state of the world where every device is reporting back to a third party and doesn't work when the internet cuts, but the world of banned book libraries hidden in light bulbs around the world is sooooo cool.

(Also, I appreciated the short story recommendations). Excellent find!
