>Ecuador handed Julian Assange over to British authorities Thursday, ending a standoff that left the controversial WikiLeaks founder holed up in the Ecuadoran embassy in London for nearly seven years.
>Ecuador, which took Assange in when he was facing a Swedish rape investigation in 2012, said it was rescinding asylum beacuse he of his “discourteous and aggressive behavior” and for violating the terms of his asylum.
>Sweden dropped its sex crimes inquiry in May 2017 — Assange had always denied the allegations. But he still faces up to a year in prison in Britain for jumping bail in 2012. And, more than anything, he fears extradition to the United States, which has been investigating him for espionage, the publication of sensitive government documents and coordination with Russia.
>Assange’s expulsion from Ecuador’s embassy reflects a shift in the country’s politics since it first extended refuge to him.
>The leftist former President Rafael Correa, now living in Belgium, is wanted for arrest in his homeland over alleged links to a 2012 political kidnapping. Correa was viewed as a member of an anti-Washington gaggle of South American leaders, including Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro and Bolivia’s Evo Morales. He kicked out the U.S. ambassador in 2011.
>The more moderate Moreno, in sharp contrast, has sought to mend frayed ties with the United States, Ecuador’s largest trading partner, and has dismissed Assange as “a stone in my shoe.”
>The Moreno administration had made no secret of its desire to unload the issue. In December 2017, it granted Ecuadoran citizenship to Australian-born Assange and then petitioned Britain to allow him diplomatic immunity. The British government refused, saying the way to resolve the stalemate was for Assange to “face justice.”
>Another hint that Assange was wearing out his welcome came in March 2018, when Ecuador cut off his Internet access, saying he’d breached an agreement not to interfere in the affairs of other states. The embassy didn’t specify what Assange had done, but the move came after he tweeted criticism of Britain’s assessment that Russia was responsible for the poisoning of a Russian former double agent and his daughter in the city of Salisbury.
>Ecuador imposed tighter house rules last fall. Among the demands were that Assange pay for his medical and phone bills and clean up after his cat.

The U.S. government needs to be overthrown.

I'm surprised in all this that he never tried to escape. I imagine he could have gotten out in a box with a diplomatic seal, etc. Hell, the british cops aren't armed, he could have made a run for it with the help of some mercenaries or russian operatives.

I agree. If Assange wanted to get out of the UK he would have had the help and means available to him. But it could be that if he had escaped it would have been much easier for Hillary et all to find and kill him, or just pick him up and transport him to the US.

He was stuck in the embassy because there was no place he could escape from the zogbots.
If he ever left the building without handcuffs, he would have had glowniggers from various countries aiming their sniper rifles at him.

He would have had to have a plan to get to russia or a different country that wouldn't extradite him.
Putin would love to have him, he also loves to flex and show that he could pull that off.

I wish Julian the best, but fear the worst. If he is sentenced to death, there should be uproar on a scale exceeding that of the yellow vest riots in France.

That is true, and Assange would be able to get to Russia if he wanted I think; there is plenty of people that would have helped him on the way. But on the other hand it would be hard to trust all the people that you need help from to get you concealed to Russia, and make sure none of them were going to betray you or foreign operatives. When your adversary consist of several governments and all the resources at their disposal you will have a harder time.

this dude is totally getting the chair, i am surprised it took them so long to get him. i remember reading about him back in the day on /b/ before i started shitposting on /mlp/. thought he was secretly killed and replaced by a body double in 2016 after the clinton fbi raid before the election.

Also, while Russia would keep him safe from the states, they wouldn't keep him safe from Russia themselves. The states may be the ones hounding him right now, but surely Russia has dirty secrets that they want to keep secret as well. His life might be safer in US custody than Russian custody.

The hated Assange because he told the truth...

Some fagets started posting supposed keys on 4/pol/. I guess we'll see about it.
>>216405
As the pastebin said the keys would be distributed through multiple sites and methods I don't think keys only posted to 4chan are the real keys. Once the torrent starts, and we can also be fairly sure the keys will be posted on official channels too I would not use too many cpu/gpu cycles on testing out those keys.

>Hillary Clinton responds to Julian Assange's arrest: 'He has to answer for what he has done'
>Hillary Clinton on Thursday responded to news that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange was arrested at the Ecuadorean embassy, and may be extradited to the U.S. to face charges related to hacking classified U.S. documents, saying that Assange should "answer for what he has done."
>WikiLeaks played a damaging role in Clinton's failed presidential run in 2016, releasing an archive of over 30,000 emails sent from Clinton's private email server while she was U.S. Secretary of State, as well as internal communications between the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign.
>Speaking at an event in New York on Thursday, Clinton said Assange should "answer for what he has done."
>"The bottom line is that he has to answer for what he has done, at least as it has been charged," she said of Assange.
