The film, titled “The Internet’s Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz,” directed by Brian Knappenberger, follows the sadly short arc of Aaron’s life. At the age of 14, Aaron helped develop RSS, “Really Simple Syndication,” which changed how people get online content. The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act was enacted in 1986 to prosecute people engaged in credit-card fraud or threatening national security. In the meantime, his brother, Noah, is actively organizing for the Feb. 11 Day We Fight Back against mass surveillance. In a speech after the defeat of the SOPA bill, Aaron Swartz recounted the truly grass-roots, global nature of the protests.
