Seems to me that the Fediverse is closest thing now that’s working on accomplishing his dreams. His ideals leveraging technology to create a voice for people…

RIP.

    I wasn’t referring to r/jailbait, nor was I implying he was a pedophile. I was clumsily alluding to comments purportedly written by Swartz, supporting peoples’ right to publish, read, and share kiddie porn.

    But you know what? I haven’t read Swatrtz’s comments myself, so I’m not sure exactly what he said, and in a few minutes googling I can’t even find what I’d read about whatever Swartz may or may not have written.

    So the line about kiddie porn was me talking out of my ass. Never a good idea. Knowing nothing, nothing is what I should’ve said.

      He did said some stupid shit along those lines. But he was 14.

      There is no later evidence of he supporting that.

        R U McSerious? 14? Jeez, I said & did stupider things than that at that age, and never made up for it by doing anything smart later on.

        Next time I see the internet canard that fooled me, I will not be fooled again. Grazi.
