互联网之子（2014）

这个家伙就是斯蒂芬•海曼
Prosecutor Stephen Heymann has been largely out of public view since the arrest of Aaron Swartz,
自从亚伦被捕后，检察官斯蒂芬·海曼很大程度上淡出了公众的视野
but he can be seen here, in an episode of the television show “American Greed”,
但是在亚伦被捕期间录制的“美国贪婪”的一♥期♥节目中
filmed around the time of Aaron’s arrest.
还看到了他
He is describing his previous case against the notorious hacker Alberto Gonzales,
他讲了以前臭名昭著的黑客 Alberto的案子
a case that garnered Heymann enormous press attention and accolades.
那个案子使他获得公众关注与称赞
Gonzales masterminded the theft of over a hundred million credit card and ATM numbers,
Alberto策划盗取百余万张信♥用♥卡♥和ATM号♥码
the largest such fraud in history.
刷新了欺诈案件中的最高记录
Here, Heymann, describing Gonzales, gives his view on the hacker mindset:
那期节目里，Heymann是这么形容黑客的心态的：
These guys are driven by a lot of the same things that we’re driven by.
这些家伙同样被驱使我们的东西所驱使
They have an ego, they like challenge, and of course they like money and everything you can get for money.
他们拥有自我，他们喜欢质疑，当然他们喜欢钱，喜欢钱能带来的一切
One of the suspects implicated in the Gonzales case was a young hacker named Jonathan James.
在 Gonzalez 案件中受到牵连的嫌疑人是一个名叫 Jonathan James的年轻黑客
Believing Gonzales’ crimes would be pinned on him,
他觉得 Gonzalez 的罪行都会判到他身上来
James committed suicide during the investigation.
在调查过程中他就自杀了
In an early press release describing the government’s position in the case of Aaron Swartz,
早期报道中，关于政♥府♥在亚伦一案中的角色
Heymann’s boss, U.S. Attorney for the District of Massachusets, Carmen Ortiz, said this:
Heymann的老板，美国马萨诸塞州的律师卡门 • 奥尔蒂斯是这么说的
“Stealing is stealing, whether you use a computer command or a crowbar,
偷窃就是偷窃，无论你用的是计算机指令还是一根撬棍
and whether you take documents, data, or dollars.”
也无论你偷的是文件、数据还是钱财
It is not true. It’s obviously not true.
这不是真的，显然不是这样子
I’m not saying it’s harmless,
我不是说这样是免于法律责任的
and I’m not saying that we shouldn’t criminalize stealing of information,
也不是说我们不应该将信息窃取刑事化
but you got to be much more subtle
但是这样会更微妙
in trying to figure out exactly which kinds of harms are harmful here.
在判断哪种危害是有害的
So the thing about a crowbar is, every time I break into a place with a crowbar,
所以关于撬棍，那就是每次我通过撬棍进入一个地方
I do damage. There is no doubt about it.
我就造成了破坏。这是毋庸置疑的
But when Aaron writes a script that says
但亚伦是这么写道的：
download download download, a hundred times in a second,
“下载、下载、下载，每秒数百次”
there’s no obvious damage to anybody.
没有给任何人带来什么危害
If he does that for the purpose of gathering an archive to do academic research on it,
如果他这么做是为了收集资料做学术研究
there is never any damage to anybody.
对任何人都没有危害
He wasn’t stealing. He wasn’t selling what he got or giving it away.
他不是偷，他没有兜卖♥♥或是拿走他所获得的东西
He was making a point, for as far as I could tell.
他在强调这一点
The arrest took its toll on Swartz.
斯沃茨为此付出了被逮捕的代价
He just wouldn’t talk about it.
他只是不想谈论它
I mean, he was very stressed.
我的意思是，他很紧张
If you would thought that the FBI was going to come to your doorstep any day,
你想像一下，如果美国联邦调查局不知哪天会出现在你家门前
anytime you went down the hall, even to do your laundry,
在你走出大厅或洗衣服的任何时候
and they’d break in into your apartment ’cause you left the door unlocked,
因为你忘了锁门他们随时有可能破门而入
like…I’d be pretty stressed,
这样的话，我也会很紧张
and it was clear, and so Aaron was always sort of like in a dour mood.
这很明显，亚伦也会因此心情低落
He wouldn’t give off any sensitive information about his whereabouts during this time,
在这期间，他不能透露任何关于他在哪里的信息
because he was so afraid that the FBI would be waiting for him.
因为他非常害怕等待他的会是联邦调查局
It was a time of unprecedented social and political activism.

Time Magazine would later name, as their 2011 Person of the Year, “The Protester”.

has a lot of hackers in its ranks,
有许多黑客在里面

进行一轮又一轮狂热的行为
If you compare that to what he did,
跟亚伦做的比起来
this stuff should have been left behind for MIT and JSTOR to deal with,
这些黑客早就该被麻省理工和JSTOR收拾了
in a kind of private, professional matter.
在隐私和职业的问题上
It should have never gotten the attention of the criminal system.
它不应该引起了刑事制度的关注
It just didn’t belong there.
它不属于刑事范围
Before he was indicted, Swartz was offered a plea deal

sitting down against you, and then you’ve got this case with this kid,
坐在那里与你对干，然后你又接了这些孩子的案子
which is pretty easy to prove that he did something,
很容易去证明他所做过的事
and he’s already marked himself as a troublemaker with the FBI,
并且他已经把自己标为做联邦调查局的麻烦制♥造♥者
so why not go as tough as you can against that guy?

It’s good for you the prosecutor. It’s good for the Republic,
这对你检察官有好处，对国家也有好处

for doing what he did. That’s just outrageous.
就因为他做的这件事。这很残暴
It makes sense for him to be maybe fined a bunch of money,
这样子的话，他被罚一大笔钱
or asked not to come back to MIT again.
被禁止进入麻省理工就毫无意义了

The government claim was that he was planning to publish these.
政♥府♥声称他计划要发布这些
We don’t really know whether that was his real intention
这是不是他的真正意图，我们无从得知
because Aaron also had a history of doing projects where he’d analyze giant data sets of articles

就为了学习一些有趣的事
The best evidence for that was that when he was at Stanford,

giving money to law professors who wrote law review articles
那些公♥司♥拿钱给写法学评论的法学教授
which were then beneficial to, like, Exxon during an oil spill.
这将给公♥司♥带来好处，就像埃克森公♥司♥在石油泄漏期间做的那样

Swartz had never released the Westlaw documents.

In theory, he could have been doing the same thing about the JSTOR database.
