[liberationtech] Reddit rewrites history by excluding Aaron Swartz

[Karl]

What's missing from the alarm is that it is, obviously, not just reddit
that it is doing this.  It is happening everywhere in a lot of different
ways, and many people are still unaware of this.

The proposed alternative, https://github.com/ruqqus/ruqqus is open source,
which is a wonderful step up from reddit.  Since many people won't be
leaving reddit, ideally it would have a way for reddit themselves to easily
migrate to it.

Meanwhile there are numerous decentralized and blockchain-based discussion
systems, one of the largest being https://steemit.com/ .  Making one of
these look just like reddit would not be a difficult job, and censorship
would be much easier to prevent.
