The ability to mentally to pick up on certain sounds and to drown out other noises is possibly an innate trait that most all mothers and bartenders have. I've been both and more. I was looking forward to this movie and try as I might I could not get past the first 30 minutes or so. Disappointed as all get out. I'd love to able to review the movie yet all I can tell you is the first few minutes were adorable and then the obnoxiously loud soundtrack starts OVER the dialogue with crap music that fluctuates beyond reason or good sense. IMHO anyway. good luck. FYI it was a DVD.

A documentary about Aaron Swartz, an internet prodigy since a very young age, who had a huge contribution and influence on some of the internet's blocks, such as Creative Commons, RSS, Reddit, SOPA and a lot more. This is the story of one person who tries to fight a government and in some aspects succeeds, but pays in his own life. He had an agenda that knowledge should be shared for free. He protested the situation in which the government makes hundreds of million of dollars in order to allow people to access public domain law/court/science documents. He d/l huge amount of these documents, that had free access from MIT computers, in order to spread them for free. He was charged by the FBI and prosecuted in court, facing a lifetime in prison. In 2013 he committed suicide at age 26.

The movie is based on the life of Aaron Swartz, a programmer, entrepreneur and an Internet hacktivist, who ended his life at an early age of 26. This is a documentary and all the cast were the people involved in his life, including Tim Berners-Lee (the inventor of World Wide Web (WWW)).He started programming at a very early age and was involved in making websites. He was involved in development of web feed format RSS, the organization Creative Commons, the social news site Reddit. He also focused on civic awareness and activism.He was arrested on charges of breaking and entering with intent to commit a felony. He was a research fellow at Harvard University at the time of his arrest and a visitor of MIT. He used JSTOR, a digital repository, to download a large number of academic journal articles through MIT's computer network (which is not public and people have to pay to get the articles. But MIT's students were authorized to access JSTOR through it's network for free). He was captured on a camera using the computer which was used to download the articles. From there on his charges grew with an intent set an example as to what can happen when people try to cross borders. I strongly feel that he was overcharged.This movie leaves us with the thought of how a political system can use the outdated rules to convict innocent people and how important it is to give open access to the research articles to help improve technology and make world a better place.

I rate this movie 10 just because it is something that everyone needs to see. It is one of the most important subjects of our generation. Your and your kids freedom is at stake.If you think freedom of speech is important you should recommend this to everyone you know and don't know.If you think the U.S legal system is to hard on people threatening the establishment you should recommend this to everyone you know and don't know. If you think laws should bee public and accessible to everyone for free you should recommend this to everyone you know and don't know.
