In 2010, a mysterious hacker broke into MIT and accessed a restricted server room. He connected his computer to the network and ran a program called Keepgrabbing.py.

He used the program to grab as many academic journals as possible from the digital library called JSTOR. Since the hacker was using the MIT networks, he was able to access all of JSTOR for free, without having to pay the hefty fees that they charged.

Aaron reformed the CCFA laws, massive respect to him and his family for fighting for freedom of knowledge and law reform.

This man basically created the open course work that started at MIT years later. A true modern day martyr for enlightenment of all humans.

Crazy how stuff like this gets you 59 years in prison but when it comes to child abuse it’s only like 5-10.

50 years for hacked material is insane. While there are child predators and murderers still running free

Reddit barely acknowledges this man's existence. Aaron was a real one.

If he's getting 50 years for that, something was really going behind the scenes

I've seen people get out of jail inside of year for murder. It still pisses me off for what they did to this young man. There is no justice within the legal system.

I did not expect that plot twist. That’s absolutely tragic. RIP. He was a modern day intellectual Robin Hood.
