Was this "Todd and Clare" site created by Assange himself?

Seriously, what the hell dating site claims to be "the first dating site ever to be integrated in a United Nations program."?

Read the article and it's even better. With gems like

"The UN Declaration on Human Rights talks about citizens being able to live without state-level interference, yet here the UN is today, delisting and blocking a small company because we criticized their support for Julian Assange"

Which is a little odd form of argument, not only because it's an unusually highbrow line for a dating agency to take, but also because it doesn't make sense as the UN isn't really "state-level" and the UNDHR doesn't use that word either.

Almost like the person drafting it had interference by "state-level actors" on the brain. Wonder if anyone tweeted something which also used that rather rather arcane term to their 3.7M followers recently?
