Re: @Len After 50 weeks

Perhaps the SuperMax would be best. Isolation and no electronics for Twitter, etc. No publicity.

Perhaps a bit harsh, but AFAIK Leavenworth is a popular repository for Federal criminals & espionage prisoners.. Which I guess is one of those challenges, ie if someone is known to possess classified information, and has displayed a tendency to share it, then I guess you may have to isolate them to prevent more leaks.

But it may give Assange quiet time to work on yet more books. 50 Weeks of Southwark, or something along those lines?

I'm also still curious about the journalism aspects, ie should the Espionage or Official Secrets Acts be repealed because it's much nicer living in an 'open society'?
