From whom did you get permission to screen the movie?



Would it not be ironic to ask for 'permission' to screen a movie on
Aaron Swartz?

I find it interesting that 'ironic' is being used more frequently [1]
Shakthi has a valid question -
<https://archive.org/details/TheInternetsOwnBoyTheStoryOfAaronSwartz>
does not explicitly mention anything about screening for a general
audience. The movie itself is available for download under
<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/> which has its own
set of "things you can do".
