The implications this case has for the wider world are humongous. It's quite obvious that the World's Governments aren't exactly the nice guys they make themselves out to be.
What do you believe? Sometimes is sacrifice necessary for the greater good.
When I first read about Wikileaks founder Julian Assange being arrested I thought what a hypocrite. Delving further into the story it's obvious that all is not quite right.
Some might say he brought all this on himself and he's a fool, how long did he think he could get away with exposing the worlds secrets. Others might give him the moniker of a brave modern day freedom fighter giving the public the information they deserve. Never the less it seems he's getting a raw deal at the moment.
To make a stand perhaps we could take a leaf out of the NSPCC's book and all change our Facebook/Twitter/blog/obscure social networking site picture to the below. Then the worlds Government's will know that we're watching them just as closely as their watching Julian.
