The TRAGIC Suicide of Aaron Swartz: A GENIUS Hunted by the GOVERNMENT

Описание: In January 2013, the internet lost one of its brightest minds. Aaron Swartz, a programming prodigy who co-created RSS, helped build Reddit, and fought for online freedom, was found dead by suicide at age 26.

But this was not just a personal tragedy. It was the endpoint of a brutal two-year legal battle against the full power of the United States government.

Why was the Department of Justice demanding 35 years in prison for a man who downloaded academic articles from a university closet? What "crime" did he commit that warranted tactics reserved for organized crime bosses and terrorists?

This is the definitive story of Aaron Swartz. We explore his brilliant mind, his revolutionary ideals, his fight against internet censorship (SOPA/PIPA), and the relentless prosecution led by U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz that ultimately consumed him. This documentary examines the vague and terrifying power of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) and asks the critical question: Was Aaron Swartz a criminal, or was he a hero hunted for challenging the system?

Join us as we uncover the truth behind the tragic death of the "Internet's Own Boy."
