I think the difference with John vs. Assange is that Assange seemed a lot more willing to take political sides/positions, whereas John was more neutral. I have visited Cryptome on/off for something like 25 years now. I have never once got the impression that he is the type of person who would selectively leak information out of political considerations.

Personally knowing people around Assange, I never got that impression about Julian either - until around the time it became personal between Hilary and him - you could then almost see the flip in real time and attacking the Democrats because a personal vendetta.

The Biography I read on him from Daniel Domscheit-Berg seemed similar. The guy was always weird, but the crusade was him vs the governments of the world.

He was proven right about a lot of the shit he was paranoid about. The revelation about the grand jury shut down a lot of lines of criticism.

I can understand wanting to live in a world after Hillary Clinton.
