Assange returned the favor by hacking into the embassy’s communications system
Uh, makes sense. Assuming his most altruistic motives, he’s either for the utmost open government or a borderline anarchist working against large governments. So assuming the best, this action makes utter sense. Assuming the worst, this action still makes utter sense.
Ecuador IT, on the other hand, needs some work.
When is this m-fer’s 15 minutes of fame over?
Ecuador needs to boot his ass out. There’s no argument here for government openness. He was simply spying on the people who have been beyond gracious to him, who’ve done back flips to protect him. He’s an asshole, and he needs to face the music like everyone else.
Hey, how come the #metwo berniebrats aren’t telling assange to go away?
If the right people knew about this and let him keep playing so they could watch, this could turn out just fine.
Ecuador needs to duct tape Assange and set him on the the curb outside the embassy. Let nature take it’s course.
why not both?
I’m getting the idea Assange is not a nice guy.
GRU training comes in handy…
Well, I hate to say it but that was fairly predictable. If you let a scorpion ride on your back to avoid treacherous waters, you’re gonna get stung. Ecuador looks like a bunch of suckers, but then, they always did from the moment they granted this shitweasel protection.
reminder
Lock it up! Lock it up!
Sort of like hiring a master counterfeiter to work in the US Mint.
Somewhere, there’s a lamp post and a rope with Assange’s name on them.
But, but, but…Anarchy is soooo cool, man.
The Ecuadorian embassy was warned of Assange’s behavior in 2014 by a surveillance company that was hired to film Assange’s interaction with visitors.
Tee hee, Roger Stone.
What say you NOW, Glenn Greenwald?
More than a little bit of poetic justice at work here.
Heh. Assange McGyvered the place. Spit and chewing gum and total access to the utility closet is all you probably need. He had access to all three of those things.
