I'm going to actually have to disagree with you Sir Buffet Connoisseeur. I personally don't think he took "the easy way out". JSTOR and MIT actually dropped the charges and didn't want to go through with the trial, but the government took it upon themselves to pursue it and make some ridiculous charges. I believe his reason for copying the articles was to allow for people who didn't have acces to them to be able to read it. Honestly, I don't see a criminal there. And 35 years in prison and a million dollar fine? A murderer or rapist doesn't get a sentence like that, and here they were tyring to throw away a person who is highly intelligent and who had good motives and put him in an institution with CRIMINALS. Murderers, robbers, rapists, and etc. Those are criminals. A person trying to create a database of free articles is being put into the same category as those people. I used to also believe that people who committed suicide were really just giving up and not really fighting to live... but each and every one of us are different.We're all nurtured in different environments and can only push so far. While a girl living in Pakistan probably isn't anything close to a sun valley plastic doll, everyone has their limits, But when you throw in depression you never know what could happen.
