Aaron Swartz Remembered With Annual Hackathon In San Francisco (eff.org)
"This weekend you have the chance to add to Aaron Swartz's legacy by boosting tools for whistleblowers," the EFF writes. An anonymous reader quotes their report.
The 2016 Aaron Swartz International Hackathon -- held in honor of the late Internet and political activist -- will take place during the day Saturday and Sunday at the Internet Archive in San Francisco. The hackathon will focus on whistleblower submission system SecureDrop, which was created by Swartz and Kevin Poulsen to connect media organizations and anonymous sources and is managed by the Freedom of the Press Foundation. This weekend's events -- timed to what would have been his 30th birthday on Nov. 8 -- will also feature a series of speakers on Saturday night, including SecureDrop's Conor Schaefer, Fight for the Future Co-founder Tiffiniy Cheng, and EFF Executive Director Cindy Cohn, as well as a special statement from Chelsea Manning.
Aaron Swartz is lucky he is dead - he no longer has the opportunity to read through that pile of crap
Or like "being a man" is what prosecutors should be right? When officers are caught using pirated software, they should be brought to trial right? Because to Carmen Ortiz, "stealing is stealing" or when LEOs kill someone outright, yet prosecutors do their damnedest to protect officers right?
Shut the fuck up and stop pretending Carmen wasn't lying when she wanted to throw the kid in jail for 51 years then bullshit wind up the parents after he killed himself and then stating she only wanted 6 months in low security.
Fucking shill.
