“It seems clear that Snowden is indeed guilty of treason.”
So let us understand, you believe that ignorance is bliss? You’d rather not know that the NSA knows where you go, who you talk to, when you take a $hit, inconsequential stuff like that
Not only does the NSA know where I go...but so does her majesty’s secret service, the Chinese secret police, the Russian cops, and some kid in a basement bedroom in Milwaukee who broke into the NSA system.
Inconsequential? Yeah, I got used to it. Heck...even my wife tracks me. Unless some guy wants to move to Alaska....dump his cellphone....and live out of some hut on cash-only, that’s the only way to avoid any tracking.
You do realize that his leaks went FAR beyond discclosing what the NSA was inappropriately doing to us, into what it was appropriately doing in foreign intelligence collection, yes? Don’t get caught up in the cheer leading.
It's not so much what he told us about NSA domestic spying that is treasonous. It's what he gave to the Chinese and the Russians in repayment for their help that is.
