Julian Assange: Gov’ts Can Spy on Citizens Using DNA
The Wikileaks founder noted that the ability to monitor any person in the world either already exists, or will appear in a few years, saying, “That’s led to a huge transfer of power from the people who are surveiled upon to those who control the surveillance complex. It’s an interesting postmodern version of power.”
Personal Democracy Forum has been held in New York since 2004. It serves as a platform for experts in information security and Internet law.
This year, the forum participants actively discussed the events associated with leaks, which had been organized by the former US intelligence officer Edward Snowden.
The WikiLeaks scandal erupted after the website published US diplomatic documents in late November 2010.
Assange is currently in the UK and takes refuge in the embassy of Ecuador, where he was granted political asylum.
British High Court ruled to extradite Assange to Sweden, where the authorities had accused him of [but, most news stories forget to add, have NOT CHARGED HIM with any] crimes of a sexual nature.

@greekemmy took this photo only hours ago on the coast of Cornwall. She wished to convey the fact that WikiLeaks is truly everywhere: that no conspirator can be safe if people have the courage to ‘blow the whistle’ and stand up to abusive power.
