A quotation from Horace:
«
Licinius, trust a seaman’s lore:
Steer not too boldly to the deep,
Nor, fearing storms, by treacherous shore
Too closely creep.
Who makes the golden mean his guide,
Shuns miser’s cabin, foul and dark,
Shuns gilded roofs, where pomp and pride
Are envy’s mark.

#Assange did not endanger anyone. He responsibly tried to clear information with the State Department before reporting on cables.
Assange once held up a sign saying
*transparency for the strong, privacy for the vulnerable*
much like Locke's principle that the duty of government is to protect the weak from the strong. Assange was a responsible journalist, not a criminal harassing, slandering, and endangering people. There is a big differnce between his principled acts and spin-nihilist blocktors genociding people. The Zionist Google ideology is false. They are who irresponsibly endanger people and destroy lives with surveillance.
I don't like unprincipled, greedy liars that prey upon the vulnerable.
