Assange personally hacked the alleged computer in US soil? Cos as I see it he published classified information from outside the US so my question would be, you can be judged for publish classified information of the US even if you are not a US citizen? As far as I know the person/s accountable for the crime are ones who probably right now are working for the US govt…
The US alleges that Assange was part of a conspiracy to hack computers in the US, ie he was not just a passive receiver, he was involved in planning the hack.
The superseding indictment alleges that Assange was complicit with Chelsea Manning, a former intelligence analyst in the U.S. Army, in unlawfully obtaining and disclosing classified documents related to the national defense. Specifically, the superseding indictment alleges that Assange conspired with Manning; obtained from Manning and aided and abetted her in obtaining classified information
I don’t know what is going on here. On the one hand, I don’t trust Assange. On the other hand, I really don’t trust the Trump DoJ. Especially since they indicted Assange after the Obama DoJ concluded he hadn’t broken the law.

Original allegations suggested that russian operatives supplied wikileaks with the docs
So it should be a problem with Russia, no?
I guess they committed the “crime” but how is US supposed to prosecute that with out looking limp dick?

Damn, do we have ourselves a glowie here lol
I didn’t say I think he is guilty. But the charges against him aren’t what everyone seems to think.
Man… What is US trying to show here? That they can drum up fake charges on people?
We got it! Nobody doubted it. We are all quacking in fear!
It just looks pathetic at this point. Fuck it hound him some more! why do I give a fuck.
It just looks like a desperate exercise of coercive power!

A trial would have been interesting.
