Assange did not break into any computers. That was Manning. Publishing US state secrets is not a crime in any other country.

- amanaplanacanal 3y ago> Assange did not break into any computers. I think that is what the trial is to decide.
- marcus_holmes 3y agoNo, the USA is specifically only charging him with publication of unredacted documents. They are not charging him with obtaining the secrets (that was Manning) but just with publishing them without redacting the names of US informants. At least, that's what they're claiming at the extradition; what they subsequently choose to actually charge him with once he's on US soil is a different thing.
