Julian Assange of WikiLeaks fame has made mention of Asperger Syndrome and Autism in reference to himself and other hackers. What is your opinion. Does he have an ASD.

Assange is the most notorious Whistle Blower is resent times, his work has been compared to Daniel Ellsberg's of the "Pentagon Papers", He has made multiple hints concerning himself and other hackers as being at least slightly Autistic. ASD's are being used as defense strategies in a number trials involving diagnosed hackers. This makes Assange's case all the more interesting.

A video has been release on netflix about WikiLeaks and Assange, look at him from a visual perspective for more clues.


Tell us why believe your opinion is accurate. Google, Assange and Autism for information.

If he has been diagnosed, then fine. If he has just said "maybe I have Asperger's" then I'll wait for the proper diagnosis.

I am not his psychologist (or anyone else's) and I haven't studied his life, so I wouldn't attempt to diagnose him.

I see no reason to rule it out, and I see no reason to assume that he is on the spectrum.

Has Assange been diagnosed professionally?
