"There is no justice in following unjust laws. It's time to come into the light and in the grand tradition of civil disobedience declare our opposition to this private theft of public culture. We need to take information wherever it is stored make our copies and share them with the world. We need to take stuff that's out of copyright and add it to the archive.
We need to buy secret databases and put them on the web. We need to download scientific journals and upload them to file sharing networks. We need to fight for guerrilla openaccess."
— Aaron Swartz

What happens when the pursuit of knowledge and information is restricted by those in power? Can the free flow of ideas be considered a moral imperative, and what are the consequences for those who dare to challenge the status quo? In this episode, we explore the Guerrilla Open Access Manifesto and the story of Aaron Swartz, a pioneer in the fight for open access to information.
