Julian Assange Wants to Flee to Sealand

Julian Assange is running scared. He is due to be extradited to Sweden to face charges of rape, but he wants to move his Wikileaks servers to a maritime location thinking that would put him outside of the law’s reach. Is Sealand still for sale?

From CNET here:

WikiLeaks investors are currently working on completing a deal to buy a boat that would house the controversial site’s servers in international waters, Fox News is reporting today, citing sources. By moving the servers offshore, WikiLeaks, which currently has servers in Sweden and Iceland, among other countries, believes that it will be able to evade U.S. law enforcement and save its founder Julian Assange from prosecution.

According to Fox News, one of its sources “within the hacker community” said that by moving the servers offshore, the site would be governed by maritime law, making Assange “safe” from prosecution.

“He’s not an idiot,” the source reportedly said of Assange to Fox News. “He’s actually very smart.”

Julian Assange is not an idiot. Know who else can operate outside of national laws on the open waters?

I’d love to see an act of piracy on the open waters taking out Julian and his Wikileaks minions. Avast!
