Aaron Swartz wilfully broke the law. This man didn’t. Not a good comparison.
Everyone fights the GAMAF sponsored subversion of the ICT industry in their own way, depending on their personality. Although some people go around the law without breaking it, others wilfully break it (Snowden), others go around it but inadvertently break it (Lundgren), others wilfully break it but can't handle the subsequent miscarriage of justice (Swartz), yet others make money from doing things that shouldn't be illegal (Dotcom). Fight the corrupt IP machine in your way.
GAMAF? What's that?
Because I spelt it GAMAF instead of GAFAM, people like you wouldn't be enlightened by googling it. I would tend to add evil Oracle to that list of the filthy five, and call them GAMAFO.
Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft. Got it.
I'm sorry, were you implying that I'm stupid? Not picking up on the implication.
That should read "people who don't know what GAFAM means" instead of "people like you".
