Well that's definitely burying the lede from the OP.
It wasn't the sharing part they had a problem with, it was the B&E and hacking.
still... 35 years? obviously there is more missing information.
It wasn't 35 years, it was 6 months with a plea deal
It's not that clear cut and I would recommend listening to the Behind The Bastards episode about him:
Behind the Bastards: Part One: Christmas Hero Episode: Aaron Swartz

Most of these guys they just offer jobs to. This was needless. No wonder China is kicking our ass on the cyber front
The whole criminals getting job offers has never been true and will never be true. For many of such jobs you aren't qualified if you have a criminal record, even small offenses disqualify you.
I mean thousands of war criminals were offered jobs after ww2 so I doubt they would care about a little red tape just hire them into the black no one needs to know

Ah my sweet summer child...how wonderful it must be to live in your world.
That's still a hell of a sentence for a B&E
Mm. Breaking and entering to share publicly funded research is different than B&E with the threat of violence...
