"James A. Donald"
No one gave a damn about Aaron Swartz leaking the docs. That was not what he was charged with, and not what pissed off the sysadmins. What pissed off the sysadmins was physical intrusion, and him bringing the network to its knees.

That is the charges against Aaron Swartz. http://docs.jstor.org/summary.html
If you want to attack Swartz you can do it without laughably trying to defend the 'physical property' of the mit mafia. Your defense being doubly weird since you're supposedly a libertarian?
Libertarians are propertarians. Property rights are the boundaries between one man's plan and another man's plan. If the ruling elite casually violate property rights, then, as with Obamacare, the result is chaos, which must be resolved by one plan imposed on all to restore order in order to avoid collapse. Terror follows in due course. Should the terror ease, collapse follows. This has been explained by Mises and Hayek, and colorfully dramatized by Ayn Rand.
