Non-sequitur. It is a non-sequitur because I was not expressing an opinion of the trial but of Julian Assange and Wikileaks. My post was a response to the parent post which expressed angst that no-one was supporting Julian Assange and Wikileaks; and I was stating my opinion about Assange's actions. I knew full well that a whole bunch of fanboys would start downvoting the hell out of me, or posting irrelevant responses, like your own. Because that's what they do.

Since the article is about trial monitoring, it seems that your views about WikiLeaks may be the larger non sequitur.
I was posting a reply to a comment complaining about the lack of support for Assange on this list. here is a link to the comment I replied to: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24543604
"I am baffled to see that the majority of the comments here are at best showing no support for what Assange did ..."
