Knowing the faces and names deciding to spend our tax money on trying to shove in jail for decades someone who downloaded scientific papers, should be in the interest of every citizen, shouldn't it?

Congress decides the range of punishments for breaking laws, not the Department of Justice. Congress is elected by the people. Instead of trying to identify individuals to indict, consider the role of 300 million Americans who implicitly backed those decisions.

Or you could just take a step back to pause and lament the toll of depression.

The Department of Justice decides which people get pursued through the courts and which just get ignored. Its decisions have always been aimed at protecting the wealthy and influential no matter what.

Well if you have a better idea for changeing the minds of the doj I am all ears.

I believe they are referring to the reddit community's tendency to go off on misguided, half-cocked witch-hunts.

I think it helps for the world to know.
