Kick the Dog: It wasn't enough for Julian to suspend Daniel from service, he also had to spread rumors of Daniel having schizophrenia or that Daniel and his girlfriend Anke were government agents.

Viewer-Friendly Interface: Everyone involved in Wikileaks seem to use some sort of UI consisting of multiple columns of Matrix Raining Code.

comment
Pet the Dog: Despite the film arguably portraying Julian Assange as the villain (at least in scenes during the latter half of the movie), he does have occasional sympathetic moments, one subtle example being when he notices a young boy watching his outburst against Domscheit-Berg's "disloyal" behavior on the plane, seemingly considering that he is being a bad rolemodel for the child and ceasing his rant.

comment
Shown Their Work: The scene of Assange dancing in an Iceland club actually happened, with the same moves. In the real life video, a man can be seen in the spot at the bar where Berg sits in the film. As the real-life Alan Rusbridger pointed out in his review of the film, the leather jacket David Thewlis's Nick Davies always wears is spot-on.
