Aaron Swartz, Coder and Activist, Dead at 26 - update on page 4 father speaks out

Big anti sopa supporter.

Our beloved brother, son, friend, and partner Aaron Swartz hanged himself on Friday in his Brooklyn apartment. We are in shock, and have not yet come to terms with his passing.

His family don't understand why he would hang himself.

Thats really sad. And....theres the "buzzword" in the article. "Depression"

Very sad

R.I.P.

Aaron Swartz a powerful go getter brilliant mind who didn't sell out his intelligence but used it to protect and fight for the constitutional Bill of Rights. He was successful... There is a new buzzword on the internet "murdicide"

another brilliant young mind gets "suicided"

the wording suggests that foul play isn't being ruled out:

Cops discovered Aaron Swartz unconscious at 9:30 a.m. and are now investigating whether he hanged himself, law enforcement sources said.

Did the dude dabble in pharmacuiticals?

Aaron Swartz was young, dynamic, articulate, intelligent, had millions of followers, had 'the common touch' and was able to organize 'the people' from the ground up, and had a way of making good things happen virtually overnight. He was a relentless and tireless worker. A warrior. A truth-seeker. A handsome (in a geek kind of way) hero for the internet age. He also was able to outwit and out-argue lawyers and was not afraid to go up against the big guns: He knew he had truth on his side. He was a modern-day David, but instead of a slingshot and a few pebbles, he harnessed internet technology and slung words.


This man did not kill himself.


This man would not just give up.


Watch his video about how he spearheaded the global movement to defeat internet censorship, and then tell me that he killed himself.


This man did not kill himself.


He was killed because he had the ability to undermine the plans of the Powers That Lie or at least be a good-sized wrench in their works. Not only did he see them for what they were, but he had the real ability to mobilize and inspire people to stand up against their tyranny. He was a major threat to the them, unlike the rest of us who are no more than flies that are not even worth the trouble of being swatted at, let alone killed.


This man did not kill himself. He was killed because he was a past, present and future threat to the NWO.


He now joins the ranks of the martyrs who died for not only fearlessly speaking the truth but actively working towards stopping the evil encroaching on our lives.


Let him be an example to the rest of us.

awesome post

Aaron’s commitment to social justice was profound, and defined his life. He was instrumental to the defeat of an Internet censorship bill; he fought for a more democratic, open, and accountable political system; and he helped to create, build, and preserve a dizzying range of scholarly projects that extended the scope and accessibility of human knowledge. He used his prodigious skills as a programmer and technologist not to enrich himself but to make the Internet and the world a fairer, better place.

Aaron’s death is not simply a personal tragedy. It is the product of a criminal justice system rife with intimidation and prosecutorial overreach. Decisions made by officials in the Massachusetts U.S. Attorney’s office and at MIT contributed to his death.

No he was murdered by the murderous state and powers that have illegally seized control of our country.

wouldnt surprise me

with each passing day I am more and more convinced we have been invaded by a hostile force, and that we are living in the equivalent of Nazi occupied France....

It's interesting how many of these young computer wizards end up dead of "suicide."

If I get hit by a truck...
...please read this web page



There's an old joke among programmers about who will maintain the code when its author gets hit by a truck. This page is here so that if for some reason I'm no longer able to keep my web services running, people will know what to do.

I designate Sean B. Palmer as my virtual executor to organize such things. (And if you delete anything, Sean, I will haunt you from the grave!)

I ask that the contents of all my hard drives be made publicly available from aaronsw.com.

This is so sad. All the gifted people end up dead.

This is creepy. The title of his last blog?

"What Happens in The Dark Knight"

Read the wired.com article. He was a martyr of sorts, making MIT accessible only information available to the public. His intentions were pure. I wouldn't rule out foul play. I bet Jesus was a nerd too, and in trouble with authority quite a bit if I recall.

Never heard of him; 26 though, that's too young.

I mean nerd in the very best way. Smart, above others in intellect,compassion and wisdom. Nerd is anti-secular culture, so yes, Jesus is a bad ass "nerd"

Wow. And did he post that in 2002, when he was only 16?

Why would our government waste that kind of talent???

The answer is they don't.

They use those "computer wizards" in black ops once they are "off the grid" of society


it isn't 'our' government.

it is the NWO and has been working it since 1833.

they will try to destroy any serious threat to them.

family member, proves it with printed membership list.



this shill is very persistant.

Martyr is a great word and one of us here should start to compile a record of truth seekers and freedom lovers that have died recently. There have been quite a few. This poor soul lost his life early which makes it even sadder.

Shill alert u read to many novels

I tied to post the news when it first broke, but the posts wouldn't go thru

Don't think the co. name is allowed(?)

Either way, I didn't want an auto-ban for something I didn't even know was "a ban", so I left it alone. But I wondered what was the fucking big deal...

This man IS A SHINING STAR, his legacy will live on

They can kill a man, but they can't kill an idea whose time has come

RIP Aaron

Ndaa my nigglettes

sm new here where is list of ban words at

There are tons of people out there with the same talent...

The government killed him because he was going against their agenda.
