“The Obama administration, which has brought more prosecutions against leakers than all prior presidencies combined, has sought to create a climate of fear that would stifle any attempts at whistle-blowing. But Snowden destroyed that template. He has managed to remain free, outside the grasp of the United States; what's more, he has refused to remain in hiding but proudly came forward and identified himself. As a result, the public image of him is not a convict in orange jumpsuit and shackles but and independent, articulate figure who can speak for himself, explaining what he did and why.” NsaEdward SnowdenMass SurveillanceGlenn Greenwald Book:No Place to Hide: Edward Snowden, the NSA, and the U.S. Surveillance State Source: No Place to Hide: Edward Snowden, the NSA, and the U.S. Surveillance State
