A real case or a commercial move ?
Most likely a commercial move to give the US a competitive advantage. Most firms care more about their reputation over others, and this is an edge they'd like to have against China.

Whichever the case, tho, I would like to see if they would still want Assange arrested since what he's doing is not so much different from the geologist here by revealing secrets and confidential information. The US are arguing a lack of transparency against China. It wouldn't make sense that they go and do the same thing China is to Assange in light of this.
