The Internets Own Boy
The internet's Own Boy. The Story of Aaron Swartz.
The film follows 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.

Something to read from Adbusters that can connect to this quite easily, the captial farm that is the world and the sheep that graze are us. We're all locked into and by now completely addicted to the technology we consume. Wether we like it or not we're hooked.
It has gone too far. We cannot simply shake off our chains. We have more than them to lose, more to overcome. Our mode of being is enslaved.
We must declare war on ourselves in order to be free. We have to swim against the current.
