Reddit co-founder kills himself

Aaron Swartz, co-founder of Reddit and co-author of XML 1.0 is dead. He committed suicide after being harassed by the government for scraping a website that hosts public domain articles. The website did not press civil charges, but this did not stop the government from pursuing criminal ones.

>>12, I am surprised you do not know. They have several classified documents from many governments on their servers, even confidential agreements documents that puts a shame on many current governments and their fearsome powers. Unfortunately Aaron copied a few kilos of these docs, and had to be put down, in fear his other friends would expose them. Why do you think he was in constant surveillance all the way to his death?

Facebook and Google are US Gov companies, they share info straight to the top. Microsoft is still the US lap dog.

JSTOR technically still poses threat, so much so, they have maintained all of their "non profit" tax bonus, and donations.
