Snowdon is a dummy

Back to Snowden ...

... the (German) Chaos Computer Club "decided to support Snowden's six European lawyers with 36.000 Euro to cover their expenses. Earlier this year, the CCC general assembly also decided to offer Edward Snowden the honorary membership, which he accepted gladly." Source

Not to mention that off hand there seems no other reason to be offering that help by way of anonymous emails

Ahhh...there are people who want to see Snowden nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize also.

Back to Snowden ...

The National Security Agency is secretly providing data to nearly two dozen U.S. government agencies with a “Google-like” search engine built to share more than 850 billion records about phone calls, emails, cellphone locations, and internet chats, according to classified documents obtained by The Intercept.

The documents provide the first definitive evidence that the NSA has for years made massive amounts of surveillance data directly accessible to domestic law enforcement agencies. Planning documents for ICREACH, as the search engine is called, cite the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Drug Enforcement Administration as key participants.

ICREACH contains information on the private communications of foreigners and, it appears, millions of records on American citizens who have not been accused of any wrongdoing. Details about its existence are contained in the archive of materials provided to The Intercept by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden.

is simply paranoid

That "some" more will come.

I guess the only reassurance the NSA has is that any secret document they may have since Snowden left he won't be able to get his dirty little hands on.

The answer came pretty quickly off the top of my head and judging by your response, you agree.

Agree with what?

That the US is starting to become a police state where even those US citizens who are not breaking any laws need to be concern about the government taking actions against them and in some cases actions taken in secret?

The Pew Research Center questioned 1,801 adults in the United States about social issues and about one important public issue: the revelations based on Edward Snowden’s NSA files regarding the mass surveillance of American’s phone and email records.

This was the chosen topic, because the Research Center noticed in other studies that Americans were divided on whether the leaks were good or not. For instance, one survey found 44 percent of people saying the release of classified information harms the public interest, while 49 percent believe the data serves the public interest.

The new survey found that people were less willing to discuss the Snowden-NSA story in social media than they were in person. About 86 percent of Americans were willing to have an in-person conversation about the topic, but only 42 percent of them were willing to post about it on Facebook and Twitter.

Out of the 14 percent of Americans that were completely unwilling to discuss the NSA scandal in person, only 0.3 percent were willing to post about it on social media. This means that social media is no longer a refuge where people can share their opinions without fear of any getting slammed by trolls.

Both in personal and online settings, people did seem to be more willing to discuss their views if they thought the other people agreed with them, regardless if this happened at work, or with friends.

I respect Snowden's dirty little hands over your dirty minds. Without Snowden, we wouldn't know that the US government broke the laws of our land and our Constitution. That's the primary law that protects all Americans - or should.

Our Constitution should be sacrosanct. You are essentially throwing mud at our Constitution.
