All the people saying they can't get rid of meta accounts cause its only way they contact some people disgust me. Just say you don't care and stop acting like you do. There are a million and one ways to contact people and if someone won't use a different contact method to talk to you, they don't really want to talk to you. Its the smallest change to combat fascism and you won't even do that.
Folks remembering #AaronSwartz today - remember that he was moving publicly-funded research out from behind a paywall.
Then remember the only reason the case went forward is because federal prosecutors, specifically Carmen Ortiz and Stephen Heymann, wanted to make an example of him.
“Theft is theft, and it doesn’t matter if you use a crowbar or a computer” were Heymann’s words at the time.
Notice how federal prosecutors aren’t bullying Sam Altman for the wholesale theft of content network-wide, to build a machine that spews bullshit and further destroys our ability to determine the truth?
It’s because he’s doing it for private profit, while Aaron worked for the public good.
Never let yourself be tricked into believing the legal system is a justice system.
