He’s an outlaw for having stolen highly sensitive classified info much of which was unrelated to domestic surveillance. He doused gasoline and lit a match over a good portion of our secret military ops.


Just because the government deems something "highly sensitive classified info" doesn't mean it should be, especially not with the US's history. Not that there are better countries, but considering what the US has done in the recent past, it shouldn't be trusted.


I have never looked over the details of what Snowden made public. Can you give examples of info he released that does not pertain to mass surveillance?

I am used to just seeing articles like this: https://mashable.com/2014/06/05/edward-snowden-revelations/#... None of that directly reveals military logistics.


I prefer to think the secret military ops (capabilities) were the gasoline; Snowden lit a match to illuminate the tank.
