That's not what he's accused of doing. The password would not have given Manning access to additional information - just a way to cover her tracks. Whether Assange even tried to crack the password is just speculation, though.
- FireBeyond 7y ago> just a way to cover her tracks. So actively assisting in knowingly concealing a crime is no longer a crime, now? > Whether Assange even tried to crack the password is just speculation, though. Assange is quoted saying to Manning that he was "still trying, had had no luck yet, trying different tools".
- cyphar 7y ago> Assange is quoted saying to Manning that he was "still trying, had had no luck yet, trying different tools". Which is evidence that he probably wasn't trying at all (and was lying to Manning) because any moderately-competent teenager with a computer can tell you that the only tool you need to use is johntheripper.
