  24       <div class="date"> 8th October 2015</div>
  25       <div class="body"><p>The movie "<a href="http://www.takepart.com/internets-own-boy">The
  26 Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz</a>" is both inspiring
  27 and depressing at the same time.  The work of Aaron Swartz has
  28 inspired me in my work, and I am grateful of all the improvements he
  29 was able to initiate or complete.  I wish I am able to do as much good
  30 in my life as he did in his.  Every minute of this 1:45 long movie is
  31 inspiring in documenting how much impact a single person can have on
  32 improving the society and this world.  And it is depressing in
  33 documenting how the law enforcement of USA (and other countries) is
  34 corrupted to a point where they can push a bright kid to his death for
  35 downloading too many scientific articles.  Aaron is dead.  Let us all
  36 weep.</p>
  37
  38 <p>The movie is also available on
  39 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXr-2hwTk58">Youtube</a>.  I
  40 wish there were Norwegian subtitles available, so I could show it to
  41 my parents.</p>
