That's literally the line they went for, thanks to Snowden we do know Five Eyes runs programs exactly for these kinds of character assassinations [0].
Or why do you think we had all these amazing headlines about how badly Assange allegedly treats his cat and how dirty his bathroom is? How is that of relevance to anybody on a global scale?
It's all pure ad-hominem to keep the narrative about him as a person, and not what he actually did and blew the whistle on.
