Wiki leaks founder Julian Assange is now walking free in Britain after being released on bail. He had been attempting to fight extradition to Sweden after being accused of committing sex crimes. The allegations were made by two Wiki leaks volunteers. Assange was released on bail for approximately 200 000 pounds. For those who don't know, Wiki leaks is a non profit organization that publishes submissions of otherwise unavailable documents from anonymous sources.
Whether or not Julian Assange committed sex crimes, is something which I do not know. I will say that for the sake of exciting news, I am enthralled that he will not be imprisoned. Assange has already stated that he is going right back to work, something U.S. officials are not to happy about I will assume. Wikileaks is becoming, or already is, a global organization of sorts. There are older men and women joining now, as well as teenagers my age becoming part of the system and uncovering conspiracy stories of their own. There is another debatable question surrounding Assange as well. Is this man breaking the law in his methods of uncovering the hidden truth? Personally, I would say no, but he should be very aware of the steps he takes when he digs up his next conspiracy. The U.S.A. has already filed an indictment calling for his arrest while other nation leaders are acting with mixed emotions. Australia's PM made a statement recently praising Julian and his co-workers for the work they are doing. I myself, love what they are doing and hope that they will continue until no stone is left unturned.
