Aaron Swartz participated in the creation of Reddit by merging Infogami which was a startup idea in which he worked there by 2006 while he was invited to participate in Y Combinator, Reddit is currently a community that has great weight on the Internet, the main objective of it is that users can contribute links and generate discussions. Aaron Swartz made great contributions to Reddit’s code in its beginnings and perhaps it was the startup where his name began to take much more strength.

Bloggers also have to thank the creation of this format with John Gruber, it consists of writing plain text without the need to use HTML tags, the syntax is very simple so it speeds up the process. Most of us who write use it on a daily basis and it is a huge advantage for both experienced and novice writers.

Swartz’s family and partner created a memorial web page on which they posted a statement, which read: “He used his prodigious talents as a programmer and technologist not to enrich himself, but to make the Internet and the world a fairer and better place”.

On a new anniversary of the death of Aaron Swartz, writer, programmer and one of the most important activists in the fight for free access to information on the Internet, we remember and pay tribute to him in the following lines.

The cause? He had downloaded more than four million academic publications from the JSTOR repository through the internal network of MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, one of the most prestigious university and technological institutions in the world), to which he had access as a research fellow at Harvard University.

Both he and his lawyer had rejected, at the end of 2012, a recommendation from the Prosecutor’s Office for a six-month sentence in a low-security prison if he pleaded guilty on 13 federal charges: they preferred to go to trial and force the Prosecutor’s Office to justify such a prosecution against him. A trial he did not get to, because his decision to take his own life stood in the way.

It seems exaggerated, implausible, that a person could end up in a tragic trap for downloading files in the same era in which many of us spend our time downloading, uploading and sharing things on the Internet.
