La última canción de Dan Bull: "We Are All Aaron Swartz"

El último vídeo de Dan Bull es un tributo al activista Aaron Swartz, que se quitó la vida en el contexto de una persecución legal completamente desporporcionada.

We Are All Aaron Swartz by Dan Bull

Was it cybercrime or fighting for rights?
I admit it's a fine line
so might I present this:
a track record you might find distinguished
the highlight of which
are quite trying to list.
This bright mind extinguished
died trying to bring this Brave New World to life
Cyber-Genesis
Computer-literate, like-minded linguist
The lines in his script
are my kind of English
and hindsight provides quite the image
of an activist, hacktivist
dying like he lived
on the fireline
of online rights traditionalists, politicists
quick to stick his digits on the hit list.
A lifetime in prison
can drive minds to sickness
so why I am surprised he did this?
Fighting insurmountable odds
handed down from the gods
because David is a risk
when Goliath runs a business.
We're all Aaron Swartz in a manner of speaking.
We'll carry on his work that still needs completing.
We're all Aaron Swartz in a manner of speaking.
We'll finish every mission that still needs completing ...
