"Aaron was a dear friend, and an ideological brother in arms. As others have spoken to at great length, he was indeed a passionate advocate for access to information and for a free and open Internet. He believed in these things for their own sakes, but moreover as means towards the even deeper end of building a world defined by social and economic justice. He resisted the impulse to presume that he alone was responsible for his brilliance or should benefit therefrom, and he wasn’t a techno-utopian: He was a communitarian, somebody who was deeply aware of our world’s injustices and who understood the constant struggle that is necessary to even begin to remedy them. That’s why this organization exists."
Quinn Said: "When he was 20, he carried me through my divorce. We promised each other a year. I apologized so many times: that I was better than what he was getting, that he got me destroyed. Still, what a year. Later, I tried to take care of him while he was being destroyed, from inside and out. I struggled so hard, but not as hard as he did. I told him, time and again, that this was his 20s. It would be better in his 30s. Just wait. Please, just hold on."
Fighting Back Against the “Intellectual Property” Racket

"We are all Aaron Swartz – to reclaim the battle cry abused so flagrantly by the West’s faux-democratic “awakening” in the Arab World and beyond.
http://landdestroyer.blogspot.de/2011/12/2011-year-of-dupe.html
And we must all become active opponents of this agenda to usurp our ability to determine our own destiny. Aaron Swartz was an exceptional proponent of Internet freedom and openness – but by all of us joining the ranks of this cause, we exponentially complicate the system’s ability to target and destroy any one of us. If your cause is just, and your means constructive and pragmatic, there isn’t just “safety” in numbers, there is invincibility."

Im Gedenken an Aaron Swartz posten Wissenschaftler und Studierende freie Texte im Netz. Hashtag #pdftribute.
Via Al Jazeera:
"Many professors and researchers posted links to their own academic work on Twitter. A full list can be found at pdftribute.net"
Hashtag #pdftribute is remembering Aaron Swartz in a way he'd have loved - by tweeting links to academic papers free of charge

"All content found here was scraped from twitter and is made free in honour of Aaron Swartz."

"Aaron Swartz und die Befreiung des Wissens":
"Und neben zahlreichen Artikeln, Blog-Postings und Petitionen ist die wohl signifikanteste Aktion ein Aufruf an alle Akademiker, ihre Artikel mittels Twitter-Hashtag #pdftribute zum freien Download ins Netz zu stellen, so dass diese gesammelt unter http://pdftribute.net/ erscheinen.
Trotz des traurigen Anlasses könnte daraus so etwas wie ein Anfangsereignis einer neuen Entwicklung werden, mit der die akademische Forschung aus der Umklammerung der Verlage befreit wird."
"Als ich den Wikipedia-Artikel zu Aaron Swartz angelegt habe, dachte ich eigentlich, dass da noch sehr viele Abschnitte zu seinem Wirken und Schaffen ergänzt würden. Kürzlich wurde er erhängt aufgefunden.
Es gibt zahlreiche Nachrufe, zum Beispiel von Cory Doctorov oder Lawrence Lessig. Aber auch den Aufruf, Aaron Swartz Tribut zu zollen, indem man seine wissenschaftlichen Publikationen befreit und die Links unter dem Hashtag #pdftribute twittert.
"Wer Aaron Swartz bislang nicht kannte und den Zusammenhang nicht versteht, dem sei das Guerilla Open Access Manifesto zur Lektüre empfohlen. Findige Menschen haben zu den geposteten Links eine Linkliste und eine Suchmaschine erstellt."
"Die Nachricht vom Tod des Internet-Aktivisten Aaron Swartz hat am Wochenende weite Kreise gezogen. Cory Doctorow, Tim Berners-Lee, Lawrence Lessig, Danah Boyd, Brewster Kahle und viele andere trauern um Swartz, haben Nachrufe verfasst und Erinnerungen zusammengetragen. Der 26-jährige Swartz war Mitentwickler des RSS-Feeds, Mitgründer von Reddit, Entwickler für Creative Commons, Verfasser des Guerilla Open Access Manifesto, Aktivist gegen das SOPA-Gesetz, – die Liste könnte weiter gehen. Und er litt an Depressionen, worüber er in seinem Blog schrieb. In einem im Frühjahr anstehenden Prozess drohte ihm eine Haftstrafe von theoretisch bis zu 35 Jahren, weil er sich unerlaubt Zugang zum Netzwerk des Massachusetts Institute of Technology verschafft haben soll, um Millionen wissenschaftlicher Artikel aus dem JSTOR-Archiv zu laden."
"The family of Aaron Swartz pulled no punches in their comments after the 26-year-old's suicide, blaming a "criminal justice system rife with intimidation and prosecutorial overreach." Assistant United States Attorney Stephen Heymann is one of the individuals that's been named in particular — and it turns out Swartz isn't the first subject of a Heymann investigation that's taken his own life. Buzzfeed reports that in 2008 Jonathan James also committed suicide two weeks after having his home raided as part of Heymann's TJX hacker investigation ...
In an interview with the Huffington Post, Swartz's attorney Elliot Peters accuses Heymann of pursuing federal charges against his client in order to drum up publicity. The prosecutor was in search of "some juicy looking computer crime cases and Aaron's case, sadly for Aaron, fit the bill," Peters said, remarking that Heymann thought he "was going to receive press and he was going to be a tough guy and read his name in the newspaper ...
Peters, Swartz’s lawyer, told HuffPost that Heymann had harassed several of the activist’s friends into testifying before a grand jury. Peters said federal prosecutors deserved some blame for his death, echoing comments from Swartz's family.
