The Russians don't even try to hide the fact that Snowden is their boy these days

2. So there's nothing suspicious over the Russian Embassy pimping Snowden's app?

That's really where this conversation is going?

You must be new here -- I've already addressed multiple times in nauseating detail each point in your post...

4. No one fucking debunked Russian hacking...

It’s still openly being fucking investigated.
RT is BLATANT Russian propaganda.
Take your Kremlin apologia elsewhere.

5. You should REALLY catch up on Snowden, he's not the good guy in this story

7. Rescinding his passport does not prevent him from returning to the US

[Cicada]

11. He is free to return and be put in solitary for life

In a trial he would not be permitted to argue his leaks were in the public interest.

In America whistle blowers are locked up.

12. How can you defend Russia?

After what we have been through, nobody should be defending them.

6. Some of us knew that

back when it was being denied denied denied.

This little infomercial of snowden's from Russia is propaganda from the Russia Embassy.

16. Snowden is a traitor.

I have no doubt that he has been helping Russia since he’s been there.

9. Another Putin asset.

10. Haven is pretty interesting. Turns your phone into an area monitor.

Forget phone calls — a new app from The Guardian Project, the Freedom of the Press Foundation and Edward Snowden aims to turn Android smartphones into tiny, unobtrusive security systems. Haven, released today in public beta, was designed to use a phone's built-in sensors to track sudden changes in the environment around it. Let's say you'd like to keep tabs on a room while you're away from it — the app can direct compatible devices to record unexpected sounds, look out for changes in ambient light, and notice if it's being picked up or tampered with. You can even prop the phone up and set up the camera for use as a motion tracker, just for good measure.

14. Interesting article.

13. Binary thinking does not help us. NSA whistleblowers

before Snowden were punished-despite the fact that we had laws that were supposed to protect them. The likelihood that Snowden would not also

There is absolutely no evidence that Snowden was working for Russia when he revealed we were being spied upon.

He fled elsewhere but had to leave and with nowhere else to go, accepted help from Wikileaks to get to Russia.

He was foolish to trust Wikileaks but at the time many on the left and many Democrats trusted Wikileaks at that time.

Perhaps we were all foolish to not see that Russia was interfering massively in our election in 2016 and undermining democracy---but the fact is we did not know and many of the people in positions of power who did know-including many Democrats-chose to not tell us.

The alarm about Russia and about Trump was sounded by former intelligence personnel, and by the candidate herself-and not formally by our government officials in place at the time.

I respect whistleblower status. I regret the US did not protect those NSA whistleblowers.

The fact that Russia retweets a statement by Snowden is not evidence of his being "their boy."

It is further evidence of Russian manipulation of social media to undermine democracy.

H Clinton, the candidate, stated that a person such as Trump who can be baited with a tweet should not be trusted with the presidency.

Can citizens who are able to be baited with a tweet be trusted to preserve democracy? Probably not-so maybe we need to get a lot smarter fast.
