Even the most serious and necessary resource cannot survive without financial support, and WikiLeaks is no exception. Guide resource today announced the opening of an
online store at WikiLeaks , where you can buy a T-shirt with the image of Assange in the form of Che Guevara, or any other souvenir with WikiLeaks symbols. The online store, according to the resource team, is created to replenish WikiLeaks financial reserve.
The project was launched by the German company Spreadshirt AG, and in addition to T-shirts of all colors and size, here you can find caps, umbrellas, buttons, badges, etc., etc. By the way, this German company created online stores for groups like Spice Girls or Boyzone. As a symbolism for the semantic content of all sold small items, quotes by Orwell, Jefferson and Assange himself are used. The resource logo is also used, plus photos and interpretations of photos of Assange himself.

The cost of T-shirts, by the way, is quite high - from $ 17.99 to $ 31.99. According to the resource team, Wikileaks are perceived quite emotionally - those who know about the resource are either good or bad to him, and for those who are good, and the product is offered from the online store.
Until now, the work of the resource is supported by voluntary donations of Internet users sympathizing with WikiLeaks. Let me remind you that lately with the finances and the project is tough - payment systems and banks with enviable regularity refuse WikiLeaks service, accounts are blocked. As a result, there was even a moment when Assange reported a lack of funds to pay for hosting.
Now the project manager is under house arrest at a friend's house in the UK. It is expected that in the near future a decision will be made on the extradition of Assange to Sweden.
