WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Monday won the right to appeal his extradition to the United States. Assange’s lawyers argued before the British High Court that the U.S. government provided “blatantly inadequate” assurances that Assange would have the same free speech protections as an American citizen if extradited from Britain.

BUT… there is a reason why we actually recommend that most people don’t try to make it at home. In this video we’ll explain why and share some incredible alternatives that you might even prefer.
