Hi , >> >From whom did you get permission to screen the movie? > >> >
The movie is available under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 . The license allows one to - *Share* — copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format And there was no monetary benefit collected out of this . And it was a free (Free as in Free Coffee) event for participants , which ideally satisfies the *NonCommercial * aspect of the license . > > > > > 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". > And its further mentioned in the license that " - *No additional restrictions* — You may not apply legal terms or technological measures <http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/#> that legally restrict others from doing anything the license permits." *Note :* If at all there was a violation , its a genuine case that we might have misunderstood the clauses of the license .
