In Washington, Democratic Rep. Zoe Lofgren of California has introduced a measure in honor of Swartz. Lofgren’s bill, dubbed “Aaron’s Law,” would modify the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act to omit terms of service breaches. In a statement, Lofgren said: “There’s no way to reverse the tragedy of Aaron’s death, but we can work to prevent a repeat of the abuses of power he experienced.”
