The Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz
The story
of programming prodigy and information activist Aaron Swartz. From Swartz's
help in the development of the basic internet protocol RSS to his co-founding
of Reddit, his fingerprints are all over the internet. But it was Swartz's
groundbreaking work in social justice and political organizing combined with
his aggressive approach to information access that ensnared him in a two year
legal nightmare. It was a battle that ended with the taking of his own life at
the age of 26. Aaron's story touched a nerve with people far beyond the online
communities in which he was a celebrity. This film is a personal story about
what we lose when we are tone deaf about technology and its relationship to our
civil liberties.
