The Spirit of the Law
Today on Tablet
July 22, 2011
Today in Tablet Magazine, Liel Leibovitz defends Aaron Swartz, the 24-year-old Internet pioneer and open-source advocate, who is being prosecuted for violating a private company’s “terms of service.” A look at Moses’ benevolent behavior in this week’s parasha reveals that good intentions ought to be met with an amenability to compromise, not draconian, strict application of the law.
