Yes he's being made an example of. He brazenly broke the (unwritten) rules and this is an educational beatdown[1].
It will end badly for Assange, because two of the "three cases where the EBD may be dangerous" (see linked article) apply. Whether Assange is 'in the right' or not, #1 will still apply to him.

Unfortunately the public opinion has been primed to agree with it - or at least turn away for fear of being seen to defend a ‘rapist’.
