Internet Freedom and Copyright Reform: Aaron Swartz’s Suspicious Death
By Stephen Lendman
The Wall Street Journal headlined “An
Internet Activist Commits Suicide.”
New York’s medical examiner announced
death by “hang(ing) himself in his Brooklyn apartment.”
Lingering suspicions remain. Why would
someone with so much to give end it all this way? He was one of the Internet
generation’s best and brightest.
He advocated online freedom. Selflessly he
sought a better open world. Information should be freely available, he
believed. A legion of followers supported him globally.
Alive he symbolized a vital struggle to
pursue. Death may elevate him to martyr status but removes a key figure
important to keep alive.
The New York Times headlined “Internet
Activist, a Creator of RSS, Is Dead at 26, Apparently a Suicide.”
