Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free - eviltoast
The WikiLeaks founder has been held in a prison outside London for the last five years and fought extradition to the U.S. He is expected to return to Australia.

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.

    Oh, absolutely!

    I get why they accepted the money, but they doesn’t seem to have accepted the consequences yet.

    And I don’t have an answer as to how to solve the issue.

    We need an organization like Wikileaks, but no one will want to fund it, as they don’t want their skeletons out of the closet.

    The only way I could see it working would be if someone inherits shitload of money, and funds the organization directly, else there are allways conflicts of interests.
