    Aaron Swartz: Why They Came After Him

    In 2010, a laptop hidden inside MIT began downloading millions of academic papers. What looked like a harmless act quickly turned into a federal investigation — and a case that would spark a global debate about information, access, and power. At the center of it all was Aaron Swartz, a young programmer and internet pioneer who believed that knowledge should be free and accessible to everyone. But that belief put him on a collision course with the system. In this episode of Tech Stories, we explore the rise of Aaron Swartz — from teenage prodigy helping shape the internet, to activist challenging the boundaries of law and access — and the events that led to one of the most controversial cases in the history of the internet. This is not just a story about technology. It’s a story about ideas. About power. And about the cost of challenging the system. — 🎧 If you enjoy deep, story-driven episodes about the hidden stories behind technology, follow the podcast and share it with someone who would love this story. #AaronSwartz #TechStories #Podcast #InternetHistory #OpenAccess Tech Stories tells the hidden, surprising stories behind the world’s most influential tech companies, inventions, and creators—packed with insights, suspense, and real lessons you can apply.

    The PayPal Mafia: How They Took Over Silicon Valley

    In 2002, PayPal was sold for $1.5 billion. Most people would retire. Instead, a small group of former employees went on to quietly build the modern internet.

    Grigori Perelman: The Man Who Solved the Millennium Problem

    In 2002, a quiet mathematician from St. Petersburg posted a series of papers online that would shake the world of mathematics. His name was Grigori Perelman. Without press conferences, without academic fanfare, and without even publishing in a traditional journal, Perelman solved one of the most famous problems in mathematics: the Poincaré Conjecture — a mystery that had puzzled mathematicians for nearly 100 years. The problem was so difficult that it was named one of the Clay Mathematics Institute’s Millennium Prize Problems, each carrying a $1 million reward. But the real twist came afterward. Perelman refused the Fields Medal, the highest honor in mathematics.Then he refused the million-dollar prize. And then… he disappeared. In this episode of Tech Stories, we explore the extraordinary story behind the proof — the centuries-long mathematical quest, the brilliant ideas of Ricci flow, the tension inside the mathematics community, and the mysterious man who chose silence over fame. Why did Perelman walk away from the biggest prize in mathematics?What exactly is the Poincaré Conjecture, and why did it take a century to solve?And what does his story reveal about genius, ambition, and the strange culture of modern science? This is the story of one of the greatest intellectual achievements in human history — and the man who solved it.
