Whoever brings Aaron Swartz back gets to violate all the copyright laws

Aaron Swartz was 100% opposed to all copyright laws, you remember that yah?
-
Yes, and he killed himself after the FBI was throwing the book at him for doing exactly what these AI assholes are doing without repercussion

And for some reason suddenly everyone leaps back to the side of the FBI and copyright because it's a meme to hate on LLMs.
It's almost like people don't have real convictions.
You can't be Team Aaron when it's popular and then Team Copyright Maximalist when the winds change and it's time to hate on LLMs or diffusion models.

I'm not just a copyright abolitionnist, I also abhor all intellectual property. Yes, even trademsrk

And he also said "child pornography is not necessarily abuse."
In the US, it is illegal to possess or distribute child pornography, apparently because doing so will encourage people to sexually abuse children.
This is absurd logic. Child pornography is not necessarily abuse. Even if it was, preventing the distribution or posession of the evidence won't make the abuse go away. We don't arrest everyone with videotapes of murders, or make it illegal for TV stations to show people being killed.
Wired has an article on how these laws destroy honest people's lives.
