Aaron Swartz was charged on July 14th, 2011 with wire fraud and computer fraud (under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act). He potentially faced 30 years in jail and a fine of 1 million dollars or more. The theory was that he exceeded authorized access by automated scraping through 4.8 million JSTOR articles.
Contrast with...
AI crawlers crawl trillions of documents, often ignoring any ToS the prohibit automated scraping.
OpenAI downloaded pirated books from Library Genesis and created internal datasets that became the foundation for GPT-3's training.
Meta torrented 80+ TB of data from Anna's Archive for Llama 4. There are records of internal discussions at Meta that the data set was known to be pirated content.
Where is the federal prosecutor to throw charges at OpenAI and Meta? That's right. No charges.

@ArenaCops Thomson Reuters sued now-defunct AI startup ROSS Intelligence.
Is not the same thing as a federal prosecutor decided to go after you.

@randomwizard You don't get it. AI companies extract profit. Aaron made the stuff accessible to the world for free. Any child can see the crime is socialism, and what could be worse?

@randomwizard It’s already very clear that we don’t have a system of equal justice. And if we want to see who the system favors, look at the ai oligarchs, look at the Epstein files. Peter Thiel and a gang of child rapists. This system favors the worst and the most dangerous. We are unconscionably late to burning it down.

@randomwizard Governments—theirs and ours—weak as water. They either genuflect at big firms, or get on knees ready to undo zips.
