Holding my breath for all the Snowden critics to ALSO criticize Hervé Falciani for his illegal leaks of HSBC files.

@emptywheel@sykoticwit neither are criminals in my book. -
@Whtapl@emptywheel I'd agree w/ u if all Snowden took was stuff about dom surveillance. But he took ELINT and comms stuff to the Russians -
@sykoticwit Um, fact check. He says he did not. Falciani DID give his data to authorities in other countries.@Whtapl -
@emptywheel@Whtapl I was talking just about Snowden...sorry to be unclear. -
@sykoticwit So was I. You're making a claim abt Snowden for which there is no evidence.@Whtapl -
@emptywheel@Whtapl pretty clear he took comms stuff, that's how Greenwald got the stuff on German spying. Unbelievable he didn't take more -
@sykoticwit You said to Russia, though. No evidence for it. It ignores entire known history of how Snowden got files to Greenwald.@Whtapl -
@emptywheel@Whtapl there's no way the Russians are giving him sanctuary without thoroughly debriefing him. No way in hell. - 4 more replies

@emptywheel do you have a link to a quick primer on this? I don't know much about this one. -
@sykoticwit Google is your friend, especially as major newspapers around the world report on this stash. -
@emptywheel haha...but I'm lazy and you're knowledgeable! Ok...I'll check it out...ty. -
@sykoticwit No, just always interested in double standards on leaking. Same happened w/BVI tax haven data.
