Damn, man. I've never heard of this guy till yesterday. He's the co-founder of Reddit and one of the inventors of RSS. Apparently he created RSS at the age of 14. And committed suicide at the age of 26.

Yeah so many under-towed and unheard geniuses out there. Such a shame about the suicide.

Re: Aaron Swartz died innocent

Good read. some intersting comments...a bit overzealous of mit to get an equally bloodthirsty prosecutor involved.

Well, not only the prosecutor, but the copyright laws that are in place are fucking ludicrous.
