If so, you have Aaron Swartz to thank. He helped develop that Internet publishing technology when he was only 14. He also helped develop what came to be known as the social news website Reddit.
The 26-year-old Internet activist was found dead in his Brooklyn, New York apartment on January 11th. His death was ruled a suicide.
Aaron Swartz believed that information is knowledge. He believed the Internet should be used to make that knowledge available to everyone. This belief is what eventually got him in trouble with the law.
He was to face a federal trial in April. He was accused of using computers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to download millions of scholarly documents from JSTOR. The online service charges fees to use its huge collection of research publications. Aaron Swartz could have faced 35 years in prison and as much as $1 million in fines. Some people have called the charges extreme.你的手机或电脑有收到过简易讯息聚合新闻吗？如果有，那你得感谢阿伦·斯沃茨。他14岁时协助研究出该因特网出版技术，还帮助发展了名为Reddit的社交新闻网站。
这位26岁的因特网活动家于1月11日被发现死于纽约布鲁克林区的公寓内，死因裁定为自杀。
阿伦·斯沃茨相信讯息即知识。他认为因特网应用于向大众普及知识。这一想法最终使他卷入法律纠纷。
他四月面临一项联邦审判。他被指控使用麻省理工学院的电脑从JSTOR上下载了上百万份学术文件。该网络服务收集了大量的研究出版物，要付费使用。阿伦·斯沃茨本可能面临35年的牢狱之灾以及高达一百万美元的罚款。一些人认为这些指控过于极端。
