I would be very interested in the list of banned books, and how it would be curated.

For 64gb, you might have to extend the years to be: banned books ever, and then break down that list by reason. Just to fill space you'd end up including dubious books, and you'd need to be clear on where/who/why a book got banned.

A book being 'banned' from a pre-school for being 'not age appropriate' by some pointless helicopter parent wouldn't count unless the book was actually age appropriate.

Then you would need a category of 'banned by author banned'(or similar). Books that were considered age appropriate at the time, but now definitely aren't. I'm thinking here of the recent removal/editing of Dr Seuss books to remove problematic racial stereotype. Not necessarily banned in their original form, perhaps, but still censored (perhaps, rightly so for the target age).

64GB is a lot of books. You would end up even including 'The tale of (Darth) Pelagius'

(Pelagius was considered a heretic in the early years of the church, and his writings were banned)
