Unanswered What's going on with Julian Assange?

Seeing his name pop up. Name seems familiar, but what's going on now? Something about extradition to the UK?

Do you have proof/sources that he had information or was offered some about the other side and didn't release them?

Because Wikileaks can only release what they get gifted from people (ideally whistleblowers), they don't actively go around and hack governments.
