MIT to conduct internal probe in wake of Aaron Swartz’s suicide

“Now is a time for everyone involved to reflect on their actions, and that includes all of us at MIT,” Reif said. “I have asked professor Hal Abelson to lead a thorough analysis of MIT’s involvement from the time that we first perceived unusual activity on our network in fall 2010 up to the present. I have asked that this analysis describe the options MIT had and the decisions MIT made, in order to understand and to learn from the actions MIT took. I will share the report with the MIT community when I receive it.”
