Technological ignorance from the law makers and the judicial system is in part why that law exists and why Weev is locked up. It's funny to hear them butcher technical words and to see the word "Goatse" on CNN.

..But I've stopped laughing. It's time that technologists step up efforts to change things in the favor of communication and free speech.

I put $50k on the line to bail him out and talked him out of aaronsw'ing himself several times during the last few years while this nightmare progressed.

I must've missed you at the sentencing this morning. I was the hungover one in the mirrorshades.

i know you did. More people should stand up like you did.I think if Aaron had a better support network, he'd still be around.

If you're still on this side of the pond, we should grab a drink.
