Part of that statement is public knowledge. Wikileaks was a trusted entity who you could release documents to that would publish and keep you private. That reputation and threat has disappeared making wikileaks a tainted brand. Assange is also tainted and has lost power. The deal he signed also restricts him.

I'm not even sure it's a conspiracy anymore as each legal procedure by nation states played out in public.

The conspiracy in principle is always a layer deeper than public view.

Where did those documents get published?
