Aaron Hillel Swartz (1986 - 2013) was an American computer programmer, entrepreneur, writer, political organizer and internet hacktivist. Aside from a good amount of positive things he did in his life it was over shadowed when he hacked into JSTOR, a digital repository, to illegally gather documentations about FBI and MIT activities. Charges against him included wire fraud, computer fraud, unlawfully obtaining information from a protected computer, breaking and entering, grand larceny and unauthorized access to a secure computer network. Even with all these counts against him he was allowed to return home where he proceeded to kill himself by hanging.
