Great film, shows how broken America really is. Such a needles loss of life, with incredible potential left. Even before Snowden he was causing big problems. But he was doing so much good, driving changes toward a positive, informed, open society and government. The newly discovered pancreatic cancer testing is a testament to this, to give only one example. Tim Berners Lee's quote was exactly how we all felt and the loss is still painful even today. RIP Aaron, I can only hope that you have inspired others to take up your fight and take it to the enemy with even greater, unstoppable force.
