Make "Aaron's Law" an official law.

Created by B.C. on May 09, 2013

Aaron Swartz was a good person. He was a technological genius, with lots of credit to his name at 26. But he committed suicide in January-partly to the overreach of the judges in his case. 11 of his 13 "felonies" were due to the outdated Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, made in 1984. It's a new century, with more technologically advanced people! We need to make the law more fair-to prevent any more tragic deaths like this.
