▶ Julian Assange on Being Placed on NSA Manhunting List & Secret Targeting of WikiLeaks Supporters 1/2 - YouTube

 Top-secret documents leaked by Edward Snowden have revealed new details
about how the United States and Britain targeted the whistleblowing
website WikiLeaks after it published leaked documents about the U.S.-led
war in Afghanistan. According to a new article by The Intercept,
Britain's top spy agency, the Government Communications Headquarters or
GCHQ, secretly monitored visitors to a WikiLeaks website by collecting
their IP addresses in real time, as well as the search terms used to
reach the site. One document from 2010 shows that the National Security
Agency added WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange to a "manhunting" target
list, together with suspected members of al-Qaeda. We speak Assange
live from the Ecuadorean embassy in London, where he has sought
political asylum since 2012. Also joining us is his lawyer Michael
Ratner, president emeritus of the Center for Constitutional Rights.
