Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free - eviltoast

Julian Assange is free.

After living in a cell for more than 5 years, he can soon go home and meet his family again.

I’m wondering if it was worth the sacrifice. The governments and tech companies are spying more than ever on everyone.

    Assange has been held in […] Prison on the outskirts of London for five years, and he previously spent seven years in self-exile at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London […] until his asylum was withdrawn and he was forcibly carried out of the embassy and arrested in April 2019.

    12 years… fuck…
