Aaron Swartz, 1986 · 11 · 8-2013 · 1 · 11 ·, programmers, writers, planners, and political organizations active activist. He participated in the creation of the RSS 1.0 specification when he was only 14 years old, and he became famous in the programming circle.

On July 19, 2011, he was accused of illegally downloading a large number of academic journal articles from Journal STORage and was prosecuted by the federal government and arrested, thus gaining mainstream media attention.

Knowledge can be learned, creative thinking can be cultivated, and the real challenge of education is whether young people are motivated to grow into outstanding innovative leaders. The innovator's inner drive evolves through three stages: creative play in childhood, passion in youth, and awareness in adulthood. Parents, teachers, and employers play an important role in the development of young people, and play a vital role in helping and supporting them to discover and create themselves - Tony Wagner grew up, I slowly discovered, The things around me, those people told me, those so-called things that were originally and destined to be so, may not have to be so, things can be changed.

This innovator was arrested while copying academic papers at MIT. During his bail period, he launched a civil disobedience campaign through the Internet, preventing the passage of the US version of the Internet Censorship Act and protecting the freedom and openness of the Internet. However, he was caught in the scrutiny process by a 1980s internet bill, lawsuits drained his savings, exacerbated his depression, and faced what could be 35 years in prison. The innovator chose suicide. At the end of the documentary movie, Aaron's style as a child is shown again, he is full of curiosity, tireless learning, and exploration. To some, this may seem like a "curiosity-killed the cat" story. I think he was born out of curiosity, to the innocent. But like every pioneer who died in a backward system, he was crucified by people who didn't know what they were doing. He found that education and entertainment are the most impactful things that the Internet needs to change.
