US: "Even if we lose, we can start again with Mr. Assange and issue another extradition request" -James Lewis QC today at the UK High Court on behalf of the US Government
So they have a case against him for breaking-and-entering US-based computers ( or conspiracy to do so ) and some other case. So? Just from the public record anyone might infer Mr Assmange was more interested in espionage than journalism. Then ( again ) they got Al Capone for tax evasion. When a rotten criminal is loose practically all means are justified in stopping him. Such is the case here. The USG is not always wrong - Hell - even Hitler was sometimes correct. Even Stalin. Even Mao. Even Assmange. ( cypherpunks are all about privacy for the poor and transparency for the powerful )
