Unreleased Footage From the Aaron Swartz Documentary ‘Internet’s Own Boy’

Production house Luminant Media is marking the second anniversary of the death of hactivist and entrepreneur Aaron Swartz with the release of additional footage from the documentary Internet’s Own Boy (previously), as well as video from a discussion about the film between its director Brian Knappenberger and Xeni Jardin of Boing Boing. Boing Boing also has additional remembrances of Swartz and some information about what has unfolded in the years following his death.

It has never been more clear for those concerned about the issues Aaron cared about–ending corruption, increasing transparency in government, understanding civil liberties and equality in an increasingly networked world and reforming a very broken criminal justice system–that justice still has a long road ahead
