We won! I have been declared innocent of any illegal action by an unanimous tribunal of judges. Lots of more to come - this is a very important victory, but everything is not over yet. For now, huge thanks to @sarazambranov , @calilo84 , @JoseCharryD and many more.

Honestly, I can't express how angry and frustrated I am at this point. After so many delays, I at least expected to be able to prove my innocence. But as usual, the judicial system of Ecuador doesn't care about justice.

Yesterday they convicted me. I don't even know where to begin. For now, I'll only say this. If you use Tor ( @torproject ) _OR_ Telnet in Ecuador, you have criminal intent. If you have technical knowledge, you have the possibility of doing a crime. That is enough to be convicted.

Today the trial against me reached a new level of bizarre, when the prosecutor literally implied I was a criminal for wearing a black hat. And no, I’m not exaggerating. And no, the prosecutor wasn’t joking in any way. This reality is too insane to be fiction.

It's amazing how people can just randomly say that you have done something, without any evidence or indications what so ever. But why should I be surprised, that is what the Ecuador prosecution has been doing for over 2 years now.

Today is Friday, which means I had to go present myself to the prosecutor who is persecuting me. When I was released from prison by Habeas Corpus, confirming the many rights violations, I had to start presenting myself. Today was the 100th time I’ve had to do this.

One of the more frustrating aspects of insomnia is the stress of knowing how miserable the next day inevitably will be if you don’t manage to fall asleep...

There has been a lot of abuse, violations, harassment and downright illegal things happening in my case. But not all of it has been directed at me. Many people around me have also been subjected to this. In this thread I want to document some of these incidents. 1/

María Paula Romo, Ecuador Minister of the Interior, this morning held a press conference, claiming there are Russian hackers in Ecuador, and also that there is one person part of WikiLeaks living in Ecuador since several years.

For almost two years now, I've been surveilled and harassed in various ways - often by persons and cars associated with various police organizations in Ecuador. However, in the Habeas Data, they certified in a court of law that no such thing is happening. This is a clear lie.

We have spent three days presenting our witnesses. Overall, it has been great. We have shown over and over again that I’ve done absolutely nothing illegal - and that the prosecution technical understanding is deeply flawed.

Probably the funniest moment from the pretrial: the prosecutor was talking about my initial hearing, where the honorary consul of Sweden had taken part. He then pointed at the Swedish embassy representative (that also translated) and said he was there. All Swedes look the same!

This complaint is called a Habeas Data, and is a constitutional guarantee. We are suing several highly placed people in order to get clarity on who has ordered this illegal surveillance of me. 31/

The Habeas Data hearing today reached new levels of insanity, illegaility and the number of lies. The hearing has been suspended until 2 hours from now, when the judge will give their resolution. To be honest, after this incredible performance from the government, I have no hope.

In fact, the prosecution spent more time in hearings talking about my friendship with Julian Assange, than actually talking about what crime I was supposed to have committed. No evidence has ever been produced of this charge. 13/

Exactly 3 years ago was the hearing of my appeal against my “preventative imprisonment”. The three judges heard my defense and prosecution, and then came back with a resolution containing data that was never said in the hearing, denying my appeal.

Out walking with the parents - it’s their first time visiting me since before the pandemic. And of course, the surveillance is still so extreme that even my parents notice it. I still don’t understand what the point is.

On Thursday October 21:st, the trial against me was set to begin. I've been saying for a long time that I knew new violations against my rights would occur - the only question would be what violations would happen. Now we know. Two days before the hearing, it has been suspended.
