''THE WHOLE WORLD'S IRREPAIRABLE LOSS''
Aaron Swartz, just 26, was driven, to die of a broken heart!! The entire world lost one of its greatest sons through a suicide. And the Students of the world lost its greatest prism and spectrum!
Aaron Swartz and his likes are born once a century. And that too if we are lucky!
No matter what Internet publishing you view, at the bottom of every page is a legal stamp: ''Creative Commons'' -a special intellectual property license allowing everyone to use creative work, provided it is not sold for profits! Aaron Swartz pioneered the creation and launch of this
Aaron Swartz was a rare human. Brilliant, focused, funny, and a Kid Genius!!
He was also a soul and a conscience and a pioneer Internet Activist. What the world saw in public was a fearless advocate of open information system but was nonetheless realistic about its limits.
This inventor of RSS 1.0, -an extremely common and useful computer tool, he was also the founder of ''Political Advocacy Group: Demand Progress'', which was extremely active during the legislative battle over ''Stop OnLine Privacy Act''.
What many many students and people saw in private, was Aaron Swartz's extraordinary generosity with time and resources.
Wiki Leaks mourns him as such: '' The brilliant Aaron Swartz, a long time Wiki Leaks friend, age 26, is dead after two years harassment by the US prosecutors.''
All those who had the good fortune to meet Aaron Swartz were deeply touched by his work to figure out ways in which he could be helpful to people and causes he loved.
Ever ready to give you his opinion, his best thinking, and his critique
Professor Lawrence Lessig of Harvard University summed up Aaron Swartz's tragic death with illuminating truth: ''We need a better sense of Justice and Shame!!''
We all mourn Aaron Swartz! The World is poorer. His Technological brilliance and understanding of politics has no peer!
Good Night & God Bless!
