Aaron Swartz cofounder of Reddit, prosecutorial overreach, control of people and Information, by Government.

Aaron Swartz is just another example of the government use of power and prosecution for control of information. Like Julian Assange or Bradley Manning,  Aaron is a true hero in the line of people like Daniel Ellsberg. The control of information should not just be for profit, but used for the betterment of all people everywhere! Aaron will always be remembered for his fight against internet control by Government.

The use of government for such despicable ends as covering there own misdeeds must end. Sign the petition to remove the federal prosecutor in this case. Not that this will bring back Aaron, but we the people must send a message that it is time for our government to return to a tool for the good of all people, and not just to control people or information for the profit of the giant corporation that buy and sell politicians and people like kids in a candy store.

Remember Aaron Swartz, for what he believed about the importance of our Freedoms. These rights and freedoms are our natural and god given gifts, and like so many of our gifts and freedoms; if we do not use them we will loose them. To use the line that the Military and industrial complex like to use; Freedom is not free. Let your Elected and Appointed officials know what you think this week and every month from now on. Even if it is good also. We really do need to support our good elected and appointed people in government that really do understand how we feel about these important issues.

A short bit about Aaron from Democracy Now.
