Aaron Swartz
|

Aaron Swartz✡ was the co-author of the RSS feed, co-founder of le Reddit, co-author of the Creative Commons license and the founder of Internet activist group Demand Progress. He was bullied into le suicide by US District Attorney Carmen Ortiz, a federal prosecutor who obviously didn't understand that when you download something the original copy stays with the owner. This enraged many internet activists who obviously didn't understand that the Jew still broke federal law. He tried to put Aaron away for at least 100 years of hard ass rape for the digital equivalent of breaking into a library and taking the books.
Aaron did the right thing, took responsibility for his mistakes and paid his debt to society (lol no he hung himself).
His shitty web blog can still be found here
MIT buttfuckery
In 2010 Swartz downloaded millions of documents from JSTOR, breaking TOS that stated that only a certain amount of journals could be "checked out" at a time, as well as MIT's guest policy. Naturally the money-stuffed fat fucks running the show huffed and puffed at their inability to understand anything even vaguely technological, eventually coming to the reasonable decision to charge Swartz with like 17 felonies. Swartz hadn't been repeatedly warned and blocked from doing this, and MIT's IT department wasn't constantly chasing him off of their network, and he never ever broke into a storage room to hook up his laptop so he could download articles even faster, because Redditors could never cope with the fact that Swartz actually was breaking the law.
Aaron was being charged with at least 100 years of quality time with bubba and up to a possible three hundred gazillion billion dollars in fines. Swartz shat his bloomers, and decided that an express elevator to jew hell was looking more appealing than the american judicial process, despite how he and his fanbase constantly said that the case would never stand up in court because he din' do nuffin. So like a blubbering pussy, Swartz murdered himself with some rope, which created a gigantic shitstorm in the media causing everyone to gawp, speculate and discuss a situation that should have been in the spotlight considerably earlier (all a bit too late for Aaron, lol). Some say that Swartz did a tactical suicide, and knew that his death would send ripples out through the world causing attention to be focused on these kind of situations and for shit to get done. Other tin-foil hat wearers believe that he was removed by Illuminati cleaners, but it was most likely that he was just an emo babby that wanted out.
Anonymous Response
Anonymous responded in the only way they know how, by raising awareness for freedom of information, Internet transparency and prosecution reform DDoSing MIT.

The Inevitable Westboro Picket

In a staggering display of doing exactly as expected, the WBC announced a picket of Swartz' funeral. Anonymous responded with Operation Angel (OpAngel), and have called upon local Anons to form a human shield between the mourners and the WBC picketers. Westboro pussies out and pulls a no-show.
