Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, is a household name across the world for his dealings in government exposes and secrets, as well as his run-ins with the law in several different countries. He’s currently at an undisclosed location in the English countryside, awaiting a February 1 extradition appeal. But he may never truly be a free man ever again. Assange speaks at length to Rolling Stone’s Michael Hastings about his childhood, what inspired him to start Wikileaks, how he feels The New York Times downplayed their relationship in order to avoid a federal investigation, and how he’s “not terribly impressed” with celebrity.
Read the entire story and interview with Julian Assange at RollingStone.com or in the February 2, 2012 issue of Rolling Stone.
—Meredith Olson
Assange has also announced plans for his own TV show - but who would you have him interview?
