Original Note:
JSTOR never "gangstalked" Aaron Swartz. They settled with him out of court in return for him surrendering the stolen documents. https://web.archive.org/web/20130115024948/http://about.jstor.org/statement-swartz http://docs.jstor.org/jstor-statement-misuse-incident-and-criminal-case.html Swartz committed suicide after criminal charges were pressed by the US government, which JSTOR had no part in creating or advocating for. https://web.archive.org/web/20130115071200/https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/12/aaron-swartz_n_2463726.html
