Hey all, of all the documentarians who've been interested, Brian is the one who I think has gotten the farthest. He's the only one who I've done interviews and footage with thus far, and he's interviewed probably more than a dozen of the folks on this googlegroup already.

He launched a Kickstarter yesterday which is going totally gangbusters -- he's already raised more than half of his $75K goal.

It's officially launched!  Many thanks for all the help in getting us here!  The Kickstarter for the project about Aaron is now live.  Feel free to tweet, re-tweet, blog, etc.  :)  We need all the help we can get to make this project a reality: 


Wired also featured an article this morning on the project.  It's a great piece, and explains how this all started.  Here it is: 


Many, many thanks again to everyone who helped us get this far.  This is a powerful story and I really believe it can start to shift the conversation.  



Brian

Hey all.

On my radio show today, I'll be interviewing David Segal about his friendship and work with Aaron, as well as Demand Progress's story of defeating a recent effort to expand the CFAA; and the fight against CISPA. We're also going to play a clip or two from the documentary. If you haven't had a chance to watch the trailer and pledge to support it, I really recommend it—the link again is here.

The show will be online here, live from 3-4pm and in podcast form starting at 5pm: http://fsj.fm/cfaa

Thanks,

Ben
