My reading of the various articles since Aaron's death has not been that people are blaming the prosecution for causing it, but rather noting:

a) it was almost certainly a contributing factor; and

b) regardless of its contribution to Aaron's death, it is ethically and legally appalling in itself to subject someone to the threat of a felony conviction and decades in prison for what amounts to a TOS violation - downloading large numbers of articles over an open network.

I appreciate the perspective this article brings to the real cultural challenges around recognizing, acknowledging and addressing depression, but there is no need for dismissive strawman attacks against those who have chosen to focus some of their outrage on the despicable actions of the US prosecutor in this matter.
