For those not in the know:
Swartz’s involvement in Reddit is debated. He is considered the co-founder of Reddit by Y Combinator owner Paul Graham as a result of the merger of Swartz’s project Infogami and Reddit. With the merger of Infogami and Reddit, Swartz became a co-owner and director of parent company Not A Bug, Inc., along with Reddit cofounders Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian. Ohanian considers Swartz a co-owner of Reddit.
Sounds like a similar situation to Elon and Tesla, no?
Arguably Elon and PayPal, since that was a merger, but not Tesla, which he bought his way into ex post facto.
Well, see, Aaron Swartz isn’t a billionaire, so he doesn’t matter.
He’s also been dead for over a decade, sadly.
If we make a comparison between Aron’s situation vs Anna’s archive-Nvidia deal, we can conclude if you are not a millionare the justice is applied different.
