The mistake here is thinking they can take on Power without really sitting in any officual position of Power.

Wikileaks and Assange got popular too. What happened to them?

The State Dept and CIA do exactly what Assange did. They pick and choose who to target with leaks. They get away with it (mostly even when exposed) because they officially are in power. Assange was not in power. If you take a moral position do it when you have real power.

If the condition for getting real power is having no morals, this is hard to accomplish.
