"You agree to only create petitions consistent with the
limited purpose of the We the People platform, which is to
allow individuals to petition the Administration to take
action on a range of issues — to address a problem, support
or oppose a proposal, or otherwise change or continue
federal government policy or actions. To focus discussion,
the platform is limited to a discrete set of topics, which
may be adjusted over time."
I wonder how releasing the white house beer recipe[1] fits that standard any more than the Aaron Swartz petition?
That link, they put hours into writing those recipes and formatting... Aaron Schwartz got spin (which admittedly, probably took more work hours to not-create)
