Rape in India: "How Can They Just Do It?!"
The uproar over the Delhi rape crisis should have had led to an honest re-examination of modern Indian society, which combines a sophisticated exterior with rank perversion at the core.

India will not solve its rape problem by considering it as no more than an issue of law and order.

Aaron's death resurfaces several significant issues that are of crucial importance in the day to day life of a common man. The article argues that technology is a fundamental constituent element of the human and any attempt to regulate and lock up knowledge and information is by itself a de-humanising act, a crime against humanity. The ideals for which Swartz lived for should be placed in this context to sense their gravity.
