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.
It's incredibly sad though. I am happy he is free, but he should have been released years ago. The US had no case against him but the normal rule of law just didn't apply in his case. He has now had to admit guilt, setting the precedent for this sort of shit in the future. Also he cannot sue for his treatment.
They made him pay over £500,000 for that flight he just took too. It's fucking criminal. It's an end, but it is extremely bittersweet.
Damn, that's... unexpected.
