As news of the death of respected activist and developer Aaron Swartz rippled across the Internet yesterday, admirers kick-started what would become a mass demonstration honoring his commitment to open access to information.
Swartz, who committed suicide Friday, faced charges for attempting to publicly release academic papers from the digital library JSTOR, which potentially could have sent him to jail for more than 35 years if he were convicted. In a statement, Swartz’s family blamed the intensity of the charges for contributing in part to his suicide.
