   5 <p>The movie "<a href="http://www.takepart.com/internets-own-boy">The
   6 Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz</a>" is both inspiring
   7 and depressing at the same time.  The work of Aaron Swartz has
   8 inspired me in my work, and I am grateful of all the improvements he
   9 was able to initiate or complete.  I wish I am able to do as much good
  10 in my life as he did in his.  Every minute of this 1:45 long movie is
  11 inspiring in documenting how much impact a single person can have on
  12 improving the society and this world.  And it is depressing in
  13 documenting how the law enforcement of USA (and other countries) is
  14 corrupted to a point where they can push a bright kid to his death for
  15 downloading too many scientific articles.  Aaron is dead.  Let us all
  16 weep.</p>

  18 <p>The movie is also available on
  19 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXr-2hwTk58">Youtube</a>.  I
  20 wish there were Norwegian subtitles available, so I could show it to
  21 my parents.</p>
