    Or, you know, he could have talked to journalists without such security breach.

      The security breach was the NSA letting anyone fiddle with the data. They should be thankful Snowden leaked them instead of a foreign intelligence service listening in for years unnoticed.

        Yeah… It honestly just made clear how damn inept everyone involved is and has been for a very long time…

        There was no need to do that with gigs of secret data…

          Lol… He gave the egregious “secret data” that Americans fully deserved to know about to a fucking journalist (Glenn Greenwald)

          So, I disagree.

              I think we can all agree that Greenwald is an idiot.

              IMO Snowden probably chose him because a. he wrote for The Guardian, b. he was publically critical of the Iraq war and c. he is politically on the right.
