Is Julian Assange Dead? October 2016

Since yesterday when various strange tweets were published by the founder of the Wikileaks, Julian Assage. Rumors have been circulating that the man who is currently held up in the Ecuadorian embassy in London, after being given asylum by that country, is dead.

Later the rumors were proven to be false and in fact Assanges internet had been cut, apparently by Ecuador.

At 17:00 yesterday Assange´s internet was cut off by a "state actor" following the latest leaked emails that came out of his site which provided details about Hillary Clinton`s speeches to Goldman Sachs.

Ecuador still affirms that it will continue to give asylum to Assange who faces extradition to Sweden over sexual assault claims.
