In 1989, known as Mendax, Julian Assange and two friends formed a group called the International Subversives.

In the eyes of the US Government, they were a major threat to national security.

    don't worry about the karma. The book is good & I was reading it just before this film was shown locally: 'Underground: The Julian Assange Story' ~ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2357453/ set in Melbourne late 80's.
