Remember Aaron Swartz (1986 – 2013)

Every Sunday I wake up, grab a cup of coffee and think about what news to write for TorrentFreak. Today was different.

All of a sudden, everything I came up with seemed so trivial.

Two days ago Aaron Swartz took his life. Just like many others I’ve been reading the moving responses from the people that were close to him.

It’s heartbreaking.

This is not the place to speculate about any of the circumstances that led Aaron to his decision, or what it should mean going forward.

Remember Aaron for all the great work he has done over the years [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz"]to make and keep information free[/url].

My thoughts and deepest condolences are with his family and friends.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
