Today's Story Highlights

In 'The Internet's Own Boy,' the Good Guy Doesn't Win
The Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz , a documentary
directed and produced by Brian Knappenberger, is opening at theaters and
online this weekend -- and re-opening wounds about the subject and his
suicide. The film is a reminder that often the good guy doesn't win,
said tech analyst Rob Enderle. "If you are going to fight this fight, be
aware it will get really ugly."

Facebook, NY DA Lock Horns Over User Data Warrants
Facebook, not known for respecting users' privacy, is battling a New
York County district attorney's demand for all information pertaining to
the accounts of several hundred of its subscribers. DA Cyrus Vance's
office issued 381 secret warrants for the information in July of 2013 in
a hunt for retired police officers and firefighters wrongfully claiming
Social Security disability benefits.

Verizon to Chromebook Pixel Owners: We're On It
After a hornet's nest was stirred up over the premature termination of
some Chromebook Pixel users' free data plans, Verizon apparently has
begun trying to make amends. "A very small number of Chromebook Pixel
customers may have had a promo end prematurely," said Verizon
spokesperson Debra Lewis. "We apologize for this and will work with
these customers to address the situation shortly."
