Ecuador has confirmed that it has cut Julian Assange's internet access at the country's embassy in London.
But the WikiLeaks founder should not despair.
Bobby Mair982 Archives a Canadian stand-up comedian based in London, has just showed up outside the Ecuadorian embassy with a sign reading "Julian Assange personal internet service" and the promise to "read the internet" to him:

In another tweet, Bobby could be heard reading out the news on the megaphone:

A representative for Bobby Mair told Mashablethe comedian is recording his videotape for Sam Delaney's News Thing show on Russia Today.
"He has a weekly slot and writes all his own material," they said.
The Ecuadorian government released an official statement Tuesday saying that while it stands by its decision to grant Assange asylum (and a home for the last four years), it doesn't interfere with foreign elections — a reference to the regular email dumps targeting the Democrats and Hillary Clinton that WikiLeaks has been putting out over the past few months.
Wikileaks had already accused Ecuador of cutting the cord Monday. "We can confirm Ecuador cut off Assange's internet access Saturday, 5pm GMT, shortly after publication of Clinton's Goldman Sachs (speeches)," the group said in a message posted to Twitter.
Assange has been living at the embassy for over four years, having first entered its doors in June 2012. He skipped bail to avoid extradition to Sweden over sex crimes allegations. British police insist he'll face arrest if he leaves the building.
