This weekend I joined a number of people for an online vigil in support of Wikileaks’ Julian Assange. Some have asked why I did it: after all, Assange is at best an imperfect figure. But supporting Assange transcends just him, because the battle over his prosecution is about something greater: the future of free speech and a free press. Even if you think Assange doesn’t matter, those things do.

Read about the support for Julian Assange and WikiLeaks from Suzie Dawson, Daniel Ellsberg, Chris Hedges, Craig Murray, Ray McGovern, William Binney, Cian Westmoreland and others. If you want to help Accoun support whistleblowers, you are welcome to contact us.
