Aaron Swartz, according to John Naughton was an "internet activist who paid the ultimate price for his combination of genius and conscience."[1]
Death
On the evening of January 11, 2013, Swartz was found dead in his Brooklyn apartment by his partner, Taren Stinebrickner-Kauffman.[2][3] A spokeswoman for New York's Medical Examiner reported that he had hanged himself.[2][3][4] No suicide note was found.[5] Swartz's family and his partner created a memorial website on which they issued a statement, saying: "He used his prodigious skills as a programmer and technologist not to enrich himself but to make the Internet and the world a fairer, better place."[6] John Naughton states that Swartz "was hounded to suicide at the age of 26 by a vindictive US administration", but does not question whether his death was a suicide.[1]
