Tell HN: Tonight's Good Wife is about Aaron Swartz, Bitcoin and Twitter
- lsiebert 14y agoHmm... I thought they already had a bitcoin episode. Season 3 episode 13, bitcoin for dummies.
- nate 14y agoRight, I guess that character is on the show again. Just thought, topically, some people here might be interested.
- phasevar 14y agoWhat is Good Wife?

- Cyphase 14y ago"As Alicia represents a girl who accuses a classmate of rape, the case takes on a life of its own when the hacker group "Anonymous" takes notice and brings the trial into the public eye via the Internet. Also, Diane continues to be vetted for a possible Illinois Supreme Court seat and Kalinda becomes suspicious of Robyn." Where did you hear it would be about Bitcoin and Twitter?
- nate 14y agoIn the first 5 minutes, the girl described above gets jailed for Tweeting something about her case. And Jason Biggs has been on the show as Mr. Bitcoin and he asks Alicias company to sue Aaron's prosecution. The show was mostly though about the case you described.
- Cyphase 14y agoAlso, might as well mention that next week's episode will feature "a group of software coders in a contract dispute". The Good Wife is actually pretty tech heavy for a mainstream show.
