Shown the Ecua-door

摘要

IN 2011 JULIAN ASSANGE was asked whether he had in mind a title for his autobiography. "Ban This Book: From Swedish Whores to Pentagon Bores" was his flippant suggestion-a reference to rape allegations made against him in Stockholm and his publication of American secrets through WikiLeaks, his anti-secrecy organisation. Although he originally fled to the Ecuadorean embassy in London to evade the rape investigation, it is the Pentagon bores who have now caught up with him.
