All he did was stir a big pot of poop soup, that was already a-bubblin. Oh and get lots of extra funding for the cia and law enforcement, by taking a big bite of poop soup on tv and smiling and saying he likes it.

ITT snowden-seed swallowing retards self-congratulate for knowing about encryption

Yeah, leaking gigs of classified information on international SIGINT programs (that leaders on both sides of the aisle unanimously agreed to over the last 70 years) is actually the poo poo.

What was achieved? Some encryption startups got VC funding? The EU gets to smugly point out how lovely the US is? We are the main throw-weight behind the NATO treaty, and geopolitics isn't a loving sociology class experiment. Snowden's leaks didn't stop torture techniques; they didn't repair race relations; all it did was start (and promptly end) the conversation on Big Brother.

Maybe he can use his tech support desk skills to convince Russia that surveillance is like, bad, dude.



WASHINGTON POST - Edward Snowden says he would go to jail to come back to the U.S.

"We're still waiting for them to call us back," he told the BBC, when asked if his lawyers were in active negotiations with the government.

Here's a crazy idea:

I'm willing to die in a terrorist attack so that the government doesn't have the ability to look up the rear end of all of its citizens and/or disappear them forever with absolutely no credible oversight for whatever reasons they are free to make up

like maybe we could have principles or something instead of just frothing at the mouth because we want to be 100% safe at all times

yes, I'm sure the Russians and Chinese didn't already have all that poo poo anyway because of our complete laughable gong show security

that Snowden just gave away documents to all comers is a laughable lie perpetrated by the NSA and exacerbated by the bullshit conflation of Snowden with Manning

Manning was a loving manchild throwing a tantrum and did exactly that; Snowden very consciously limited the leaks specifically to programs infringing on the rights of American citizens
