[quote]Anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks said on Monday that its founder Julian Assange's internet was shut down by the government of Ecuador, deflecting blame from the U.S. or British governments who have sparred with Assange for releasing sensitive material.
"We can confirm Ecuador cut off Assange's internet access Saturday, 5pm GMT, shortly after publication of (Hillary) Clinton's Goldman Sachs speechs (sic)," the statement from WikiLeaks said.
Assange has lived and worked in Ecuador's London embassy since June 2012, having been granted asylum there after a British court ordered him extradited to Sweden to face questioning in a sexual molestation case involving two female WikiLeaks supporters.[/quote]
It looks like Ecuador is getting enough of Assange.

Unless they had a routine internet router maintenance or something, I think it was malicious by Ecuador embassy staff.

Do you have any evidence to support that belief or are we just guessing for a laugh while we wait for, you know, an explanation?
Ecuador don't need shit like benghazi

He's Canadian so is safe to assume he doesn't know what benghazi really was.

To be fair, it's been about fifteen hours since the cut. You'd think a small router could be turned on and back off in that amount of time.

Might as well run with it because being vague to get fucking attention is how wikileaks rolls now.
I think he needed a break from it anyway

Oh, I don't doubt that it was cut intentionally, that much is for sure. I'm just saying I don't think it's as simple as "Ecuador tired of Assange hahaha!!".
You should've seen /pol/ they had two people down at the embassy with periscopes trying to get in to see Assange.
"US sources"
You mean like InfoWars?

Then how the hell is this remotely close to another Benghazi. Asking the government to cut the internet is petty on a list of things the US could force.
