MIT, however. made no real effort to identify the person responsible 
until he brought their network to a grinding halt.

Aaron Swartz was arrested for pissing off the sysadmins, and he pissed

The cause of his arrest, and the charges against him, were damaging 
interference with other people's physical property.
