“Julian Assange, the Australian founder of the
whistleblower website Wikileaks, says he had his passport taken
away from him at Melbourne Airport and was later told by customs
officials that it was about to be cancelled.“Last year Wikileaks published a confidential Australian
blacklist of websites to be banned under the government’s proposed
internet filter.“The Age has been told that Assange’s passport is classified
”normal” on the immigration database, meaning the Wikileaks
director can travel freely on it.”
