[@ryzurrin]

Aaron you are still a role model and hero to so many, a timeless legacy for sure. RIP good sir.

[@juliettedemaso7588]

Bring his name back into our collective consciousness. His work, his vision, is of utmost importance in 2023.

[@fluddsskark]

11 years since his passing ❤. we miss you aaronsw

[@ORAAKATOY]

Aaron´s Life will continue just as long as we continue his work, spread what´s silent, what´s unjust and censorchip. The numbers is key, Unity is Key and the most important key is ACTION. Start a web page, a blog, a KZbin channel...whatever WE can and do it NOW....I´ve started long ago...of curse this KZbin page is NOT my activist channel, but I took the first step,how about everyone here? I beleive in ALL of US, Yesterday´s gone, Tomorrow never existed, we only Have Today. Aaron Swartz rip

It's a shame this only has 9.5k views in 11 years.

[@neovagabond2075]

Aaron, you are one of our hero's. Rest in peace.

[@residentgrey]

NEVER FORGET.....Rest in peace.

[@LynSmithmusic]

Heartbreaking this person is not with us any more. Aaron had such compassion and sense of justice, along with his willingness to act, and huge amounts of mental and physical energy and stamina to face up to the machine. Look to those who have benefitted by our loss.

[@gallosky6358]

Learn from his words. Keep them in your consciousness for your future endeavours when the enemies of your freedom to connect reappear.

Thank you Democracy Now for this nice homage to Aaron Swartz

R.I.P. Aaron @~>~~

[@zerodeconduite804]

I adore this person. It makes me so angry that people don't know and don't understand what he was doing and what happened to him. Yet, Elon - Gates - Buffet are SO smart 🙄😑🥺

[@brblack0]

Rest in peace Aaron Swartz. The fight will continue.

[@bluegalactic]

after watching this I find it hard to understand how he hung himself? I am suspicious now.

[@ROBMCKISSOCK]

He didn't take his life he was suicided

Here in 2024... sighing.

video sad

[@LoveIsNotNotLove]

I don't remember who said it first but, I now remember the quote: The Good Die Young. Perhaps, it was lyrics from the song about JFK, Bobby, MLK,,? Well, this is Cyberspace and someone might remind us where that quote was from. Anyhow, don't know much about him but, he sounds like superguy. But,I hate the expression, the presstitttute cliche." it was an apparent suicide." Sounds like they drove him to suicide or even set the scene up to make it looks,so, who ever someone is.Both are murder!

[@residentgrey]

May have been the point. :/

[@toknowandgrow]

haha well that is a good point. But depressing!

you know I beleive the goverment killed him then they come out saying he killed him self.

[@Oddragnar]

"suicide" Made a martyr out of him
