Some of us take it to our hearts to remember one of the most influential hacktivists <3
For that matter, I'd like to share a documentary about him: https://archive.org/details/TheInternetsOwnBoyTheStoryOfAaronSwartz
You can also get to know his legacy by reading the short Guerrilla Open Access Manifesto, available here: https://openlibrary.org/books/OL25421460M/Guerilla_Open_Access_Manifesto

While I appreciate what he contributed and I'm sorry his life was cut off so soon, I think hero worship is incredibly weird.
Its more like a thanks to him,
Its more like, we don't forget that we have to fight for our rights,
Its more like, remember, ideas without humans behind to achieve them are nothing,
Its more like, we don't forget liberals and their shits,
Its more like, we don't forget the culpability of the gov on his death,
