He was loaded, he had tons of money, most charges against him were going to get dropped anyway. Most years he could get is maybe a couple years max. He's a fucking coward for killing himself over dumb shit he got himself in.

He did nothing that hadn't already been done.
He said nothing that hadn't already been said.
The only thing that was semi-original was Reddit.
Well, the IDEA of the type of site Reddit was supposed to be was semi-original, despite also being a shitty generic idea (simply a place where all kinds of information would be hosted).
But the outcome was and remains a bastardization of that already bad idea. Not sure how you could fuck that up but hey, they did it.

If you want to find someone to praise, find someone who actually did something, like RMS.

Gr8 achievement.
Too bad there's no heaven, hell, or anything else.
So basically he has absolutely nothing. He doesn't have the ability to see, hear, taste, smell, feel, think, or even exist.
In other words: I've accomplished more than him because I'm still fucking alive.
He lost not only all his potential wealth and happiness in the future; he lost at least one thing that I (and everyone else here) still has: life.

I'm sure some guy living in a village with his wife of 60 years with 20 grandkids visiting every Christmas is more happy than one of those big "innovators" in Silicon Valley.

The thing they killed him for... (releasing public funded information) was definitely a fucking brilliant stunt.

That road is probably closed for you. If you were born with the wrong type of mind to be a farmer you will be bored out of your skull if you try it and won't make the connection with the locals needed to start a thriving dynasty. The Silicon Valley innovator is the same way. You are wired either to live traditionally or to serve the forces of capital; you might as well embrace it.

He killed himself and in doing so achieved nothing.
I bet most of /g/ would have just gone with it to the end and made the life of the FBI or whoever as miserable as possible with the proceedings.
The faggot had all the social support he needed to create his own kind of precedent, and free education has all the moral high-ground that no US acronym agency can contend with.
The dumbfuck pretty much walked away from a winnable case that could make judicial history in terms of precedent. If not that, it would have sparked gigantic division between civilians and the government by connecting it to the class divide with terms of education.

That's what irks me most about this dumbfuck.

Doesn't matter. The point was precedent. He could have achieved social hero status if he fought even though 6 months was on the line.

Well it's hard to believe it now since it won't ever happen,
but this was one of the most vital cases in the whole copyright/IP debate that went to the benefit of the anti-copyright league, by being tied to education as a fundamental Human right.
If you think the FCC vs Cable Companies and net neutrality shit was important, this outweighs it because everyone, EVERYONE, has an opinions on education. And you don't need tech literacy to get in on the passionate debate.
You underestimate the situation anon.
A few good posts before and during the preceding by Aaron, would set Reddit and the whole fucking Internet ablaze more than the Piratebay fag or the feminism shit.
You can bet your ass that the media would be all over it too.

Because the wealthy usually aren't contributing as much they can afford to. When the poorer working classes actually have enough money to thrive and not just merely exist, spending all their money on bills, everyone benefits, because everyone can contribute to the economy. Studies have shown this time and time again.
Prices might go up but things would equalise.
In countries where the wealthy are taxed heavily and the poor have a welfare safety net, happiness is high, quality of life is high, public services are of a high quality, and businesses do well.

Just imagine how many potential entrepreneurs with brilliant ideas are trapped in dead end jobs because they have to work to feed themselves and have no time or money to get their ideas off the ground?

Smart lad, to slip betimes away
From fields where glory does not stay,
And early though the laurel grows
It withers quicker than the rose.

Eyes the shady night has shut
Cannot see the record cut,
And silence sounds no worse than cheers
After earth has stopped the ears.

Now you will not swell the rout
Of lads that wore their honours out,
Runners whom renown outran
And the name died before the man.
