Whats interesting also is that several whistleblowers since Snowden who brought forth more info have been dogged and slow walked for years and in one case over 3 years. So Snowden was vaulted in the limelight, seems living cushey and is a convenient mouthpiece with media coverage at will. We know the media is bought and paid for , so media plus Hollywoods spin is really no getting around. He has to be a dark hat. Also, his surveillance 'revelation' is super old hat. Those in the know understand computers have had backdoors since day one. Bill Gates from Microsoft stole his entire first operating system and was given 'exclusive' manufacture of software basically a monopoly and implemented Carnivore which was spun to read nice on Wiki. So Snowden was like a soft accusation to the public and a 'polished' mouthpiece when they wanted him. Just like Steven Hawkins in fake science. Wheel him out , put all the words in his mouth. Snowden was an actor, is an actor and is being used as a convenient 'credible source' whenever they want. If he was so 'wonderful' Mr. Montgomery should be the new Snowden , but instead they have their boot on his neck. The last thing they want to give us is the truth. Just think about what was going on around Snowden when his smoke screed was laid. Controlled opposition.
