This web page is a tribute to Aaron Swartz, a child prodigy, Internet pioneer and activist who committed suicide in 2013. It does not mention his net worth or any financial aspect of his life or career.
So what happened is that Aaron got in trouble with JSTOR, the library, and with MIT, who is pretty much the librarian. Eventually, JSTOR decided they didn't think Aaron did anything wrong, and didn't want to try anymore. MIT was a little slower though, and didn't say much. Then the US Attorney's office came in.
