He's one of the most wanted — and hated — men in the world. Julian Assange, former hacker and founder of whistleblower website WikiLeaks, has drawn the ire of the United States for publishing classified materials relating to secret communications with other countries, combat logs and footage of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and emails relating to the Democratic Party's 2016 presidential primary and election campaigns.
