Replying to Avatar pam

reading on Aaron Swartz, and it's sad and crazy how he was subjected to federal prison up to 95 years and pressurized by gov't who intended to set some form of "public example of moral compass" on their definition - knowing he was a teen whiz who co founded Reddit, RSS etc - all for the reason of downloading (not distributing) federal funded (aka tax payer funded) research papers. He was pressurized to a point he committed suicide. Aaron would have loved Nostr and the Nostr community here.

It’s always about sending a message. If the govt doesn’t want you doing something, they’ll make an example with the most severe punishment possible without a care for the individual or their family.
