I don't reckon it's over yet Whatever was there will have informed minds, minds that think and from thought comes more thought then education then action, small pieces of information have the ability to grow beyond all proportions, all it takes is interest. Assange knew what he was risking by his actions and paid the price, but he got the information out there, things have changed, maybe infinitesimally for now, but there is a change. Now if everyone gathered the courage to step over the line, just as those who are the subject of this thread have done, change will come, a change which I suspect will not be wholesome at first as those in power who want to hold onto their power will kick back harshly, but if enough people join the fight for change, it will happen in their favour eventually, just as it has done in various Middle Eastern and North African states with the so called Arab Spring, and to think, those places are supposedly less free than the great US of A, but it happened and that is the importance, because it inspires hope for all others.
