Wikileaks plans high-end goods collection… yes, Wikileaks

Today in stories I never thought I'd read: Julian Assange plans on putting the Wikileaks-approved stamp on apparel and other stuff and selling it at malls in India.

Apparently Wikileaks wants to open up physical stores in India, and sell stuff online, and apparently that stuff will be high-end. You can buy Wikileaks merch online already, but it's, ya know, T-shirts and hoodies and things like that. The Washington Post story linked above notes that they already have designers in France, etc., who want to co-brand with them.

I am... confused? But maybe not really? I sort of feel like maybe we're all getting trolled. But then again, we live in a world where anyone who's ever been on any kind of screen has their own perfume, so of course Wikileaks would look to start a luxury brand? I mean, sure.

I hope this means Assange plans to start his own GOOP- and Preserve-esque lifestyle site, and starts recommending things you can make with fancy organic kale using your expensive Wikileaks porcelain mixing bowls.
