Official Statement from the family and partner of Aaron Swartz
I am removing MIT as a benefactor from my will and ceasing donations to the alumni association.  I will not reconsider until the institution provides a full accounting and takes responsibility for the actions of its legal counsel in deciding to refer the matter to federal authorities.If you are a current member of the student body or faculty you have a lot more power than me.  Please read about this matter and learn what your institution chose to do on your behalf and take some action fully in the spirit of MIT to reclaim what it has lost.
