@AdamWeinstein @smsaideman that Snowden effected policy is a fact. That he is a "myopic, megalomaniac asshole" is vile, base smear.
@JohnRDreyer @smsaideman there's absolutely no evidence whatsoever that that's the case. This again is unsubstantiated vile smear.

@bernajurema@JohnRDreyer if one drew out the definition and requirements of being a defector, would those characteristics not fit Snowden? -
@smsaideman not at all: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defection . didnt change allegiance to another state, upheld US law by speaking out against violation -
@bernajurema the problem is that only some of the stuff he leaked were violations. Much of it was stuff that was legitimately secret. -
@smsaideman that's up for the debate. The people at the Pulitzer beg to differ. Just because you disagree does not make him a defector. -
@bernajurema I think the Pulitzer folks are wrong on this one. Oops.

@smsaideman@JohnRDreyer that's was meant for this other guy

@bernajurema@JohnRDreyer the stuff like US cyber vs China. Was that necessary for "freedom" or whatever? No. 2/2 -
@smsaideman@JohnRDreyer yes it was. But that does not prove your point. That's in itself is no evidence. - 2 more replies
