"This makes no sense, said Demand Progress Executive Director David Segal; its like trying to put someone in jail for allegedly checking too many books out of the library.

Its even more strange because JSTOR has settled any claims against Aaron, explained theyve suffered no loss or damage, and asked the government not to prosecute, Segal added.

James Jacobs, the Government Documents Librarian at Stanford University, also denounced the arrest: Aarons prosecution undermines academic inquiry and democratic principles, Jacobs said. Its incredible that the government would try to lock someone up for allegedly looking up articles at a library.
