I understand that point and respect it. I would, in fact, agree with it entirely. The target you've chosen to defend for thosee reasons, however, seems poorly-chosen as if you had been waiting and waiting for a reason to jump out for a long time in defense like this and you've picked the first high-profile thing to come across regardless of what it is.
I support free speech but I also support the backlash against Assange; that's not free speech, it's prolonged shifting blackmail. If it were about free speech, he would just release everything at once or at least in simultaneous topic-specific packets of documents. There are more than enough means of distribution available that can not be interrupted easily so his grandiose announcements come off as nothing but getting personal publicity in my perspective.
tl;dr version: you might be poisoning your own cause by choosing this as an expression of that struggle for "free speech." That is what I am concerned about.
