I'm sure people can make up their own mind as to whether that's actually credible, or just a narcissist trying to dodge any consequences for being a horrible person.

There has really been a WikiLeaks grand jury for a while anyway, wanting to show he personally talked leakers into doing illegal stuff

Julian Assange has now self-imprisoned for over 5.5 years, which is longer than he risked imprisonment for in Sweden based on the average sentences for his charges.

And the conditions he put himself in are manifestly worse than the Nordic prison he'd be in. For instance, he literally has not been outside besides a tiny balcony.

but this way he can claim to be an international fugitive fleeing unfair persecution by a CIA conspiracy, rather than a rapist.

he claims he needed to run because the whole thing was just cooked up to get him in custody so that the US could suddenly reveal secret espionage charges and have him extradited to be locked up forever. but if that doesn't happen, then his reputation goes down the toilet. rather than being an anti-establishment hero fleeing US persecution, he'd just be a rapist creep sitting in a comfy prison cell

Maybe he can be both a creep AND also have a credible fear of being extracted by the US?

6 years is in fact the outside maximum for the specific degree of rape he stood accused of (2-6 years), and swedish praxis is to parole after two thirds. so he has already passed by the maximum he could have incurred by some margin

yes but he had multiple charges against him, which posed a likelihood that any parole would be delayed

spankmeister posted:

Y'all talking about this like he is in there to avoid going to Swedish jail but we all know that's not his motivation.

that literally is his motivation though.

after being questioned on rape charges, he moves to the UK (where it'd be way easy for the US to grab him), several months go by, sweden finally issues an international warrant, he turns himself in at a local police station where he's held for a week or two.

if there was going to be a point where it'd be really easy for justification he made up later, "secret us kidnapping", then literally showing up at the cop shop in the UK would be perfect for it. or any of the next 2 years he was out on bail, in the uk.


spankmeister posted:

Yeah I personally believe it's the latter but in his mind he's not in there just to beat his swedish rape rap.

that may be what he sincerely believes now after nearly 6 years of being full hikkomori, but there's no way he believed that when he went in.

Volmarias posted:

no, if he feared being "extracted by the us" why the gently caress did he go to the UK, known direct US intelligence partner at the highest level and pretty drat friendly on extraditions of non-citizens. and furthermore, why did he submit to showing up at the british police and getting jailed for a bit before he could get donations to post bail?

like just please stop and think about the differing level of relations between the us and sweden versus the us and the uk

I got passed some code for security audit, and now the dev is arguing he doesn't need to validate this user input at all (for what should be an all-caps alphanumeric string) because the framework is making sure it's safe. It doesn't matter that this is being passed to things outside the dependency which don't check input at all. I should just sign off on it because, you see, this web framework said it was good input and that means you can drop it to the shell or just put it in a SQL query or do whatever with it.

I just want him to write like 10 lines of code to protect poo poo, but I guess that makes me an insane person.

the problem for that dude is hes probably not validating anything and if he has to validate the code you're reviewing he'll need to go back and validate the rest of it. Its a good lesson for him to learn.

Has anyone heard anything more about the Discover breach? They want me to authorize them to do something with my SS and fax them a photo of my social security card and drivers license. Which seems like more information for them to leak out. I'm going to cancel the account, just curious if anyone has heard anything, seemed unusual.
