Irony that this relates to Schwarz

It's ironic that the alleged crimes were committed as protest against the suicide of Aaron Schwartz, as he apparently killed himself because of the pressure of the weight of the entire US justice system bearing down on him. Whatever he did, the horror of what he faced in justice was the issue. He was a hacker, he did bad stuff, I didn't agree with him but he didn't deserve "US justice" - exactly the same as with Lauri Love.
