Julian Assange appears in the United States live onstage - as a hologram (Avery Alexander 6th period)

The co-founder of Wikileaks, Julian Assange appeared in Nantucket, Massachusetts at a summit as a hologram from Ecuadorian Embassy in London, on September 29th. He was interviewed by a filmmaker named Eugene Jarecki. Assange talked about how he was forced into asylum and reiterated his criticism about Google. The hologram was produced by Hologram USA. He was granted asylum so he could avoid being questioned about cases where he allegedly raped and molested.

He is angry about his forced asylum because it has now effected his family and staff. He was granted asylum in 2012 by Ecuador's foreign minister. Of course Wiki-companies are rivals with Google, which is why I think he is criticizing Google. He basically says that there is nothing special about Google and never compares or mentions Wikileaks.
