    I'm quickly learning not to link to any site without a massive CDN.

        @Snowden I’m excited for the day when you forget to unlink your location from a tweet. That will be quite humorous.

        @loganthefirst @Snowden Moscow... and? The lack of extradition treaty is what keeps him safe, not a really sneaky hiding spot.

        @roguism @Snowden I know he is in Moscow, I’m just saying it would be hilarious to see geographical coordinates on where he is at.

        @EyalL I don’t think it’s shitty at all. It would just be ironic, with him being new to Twitter, forgetting to disable that. Jeepers.

        @EyalL I think you need to go back to your cave, pal. I’m a massive @Snowden supporter. It wasn’t an attack tweet, just an ironic thought.

        @snowden Startup idea: scrape links you post, mirror site to CloudFlare, @-reply back to you with new link. Call it SnowCDN.

        @handymanreality @BukolaE @Snowden depends on which CDN service you use. CloudFlare for instance has 63 locations:https://www.cloudflare.com/network-map
