Techdirt Podcast Episode 68: Free Culture And Aaron Swartz (Part One)

Anyone even remotely interested in free culture, the internet and copyright surely knows the name Aaron Swartz - but only some truly understand what made him tick, and why he was considered so special and important in that world. This week and next, we're joined by Justin Peters, author of The Idealist, a new book that takes a close look at Aaron himself as well as the internet culture that gave rise to his attitudes and activism, which is the focus of this first half of the discussion.
