There is no inside group, Snowden wasn’t there long enough and he is too anti-social to work in a conspiracy with others.
He is a classic loser, lone wolf, swinging for a home run for some grandiose hero image that he craves.
He will soon be forgotten. Stolen secrets age very quickly.
The big secret that the Government is shredding the 4th and spying on its own citizens won’t be soon forgotten.
It’s also having an impact on American Technology companies as foreign companies are hesitating to do business with them.
Unless you work for the Government you have no inside information and if you did you sure wouldn’t be posting it on the Internet.
