nsane.forums Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 A brilliant mind has passed and it’s heartbreaking.Every Sunday I wake up, grab a cup of coffee and think about what news to write for TorrentFreak. Today was different.All of a sudden, everything I came up with seemed so trivial.Two days ago Aaron Swartz took his life. Just like many others I’ve been reading the moving responses from the people that were close to him.It’s heartbreaking.This is not the place to speculate about any of the circumstances that led Aaron to his decision, or what it should mean going forward.Remember Aaron for all the great work he has done over the years to make and keep information free.My thoughts and deepest condolences are with his family and friends.Aaron Swartz (1986 – 2013) View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator DKT27 Posted January 13, 2013 Administrator Share Posted January 13, 2013 Why did he do that ? Fuck,i feel sry for the guy.I was subscribed to his newsletter.They say it was because of the law enforcement agencies (there was an hacking case on him going on). To be honest, some hacking cases are ridiculous. Some companies even hate grey hats (good hackers). I'm guessing it might be the same with him.

calguyhunk Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 The man who stood up to state sponsored digital tyranny is no more. :frusty:Sir Tim Berners-Lee (founder of the www) said it best when he tweeted - "Aaron dead. World wanderers, we have lost a wise elder. Hackers for right, we are one down. Parents all, we have lost a child. Let us weep."RIP Aaron. Here's hoping you're at a better place :sadwalk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
