Well, it's good that Assange is in prison. His contributions have made all of this so much worse.

There were tinfoil hat jokes and everything. Snowden showed it was not only happening, but was commonplace and operating on a massive scale. Assange, like Snowden, revealed all sorts of government and military corruption which was directly enabled by things like the Patriot Act and the NDAA. So how did "his actions" make their effects "so much worse?"
