Edward Snowden

Edward Snowden, also known as TheTrueHOOAH, Edowaado, and Phish, is a former employee of the NSA and whistleblower. In 2011, Snowden released sensitive documents regarding PRISM, XKeyscore, Tempora, and other NSA operations. The NSA and media outlets have called Snowden a traitor, while other sources hail him as a hero. Snowden's leaks are likely one of the defining events of the decade for the internet. Citizenfour is the name of a documentary about Mr. Snowden, filmed by Laura Poitras. Here is an interview with Brian Williams of NBC which is the first interview of Snowden done in person rather through proxy.

Quotes

• "Would a gay man know that much about buying chemicals?" Source
• "The NSA has built an infrastructure that allows it to intercept almost everything. With this capability, the vast majority of human communications are automatically ingested without targeting. If I wanted to see your emails or your wife's phone, all I have to do is use intercepts. I can get your emails, passwords, phone records, credit cards. I don't want to live in a society that does these sort of things... I do not want to live in a world where everything I do and say is recorded. That is not something I am willing to support or live under." Source

• "So anyway, there I was, surrounded by beautiful, nubile young girls... wait, has this been done before? I got bullied into being the editor of this fine specimen of a website by a gaggle of artists. Pens can really hurt. I like to write, simply because it's a way for me to use adjectives. I always wanted to write RPG campaigns with my spare time, but I'll get about three missions in and scrap the world for my next, better, powergamin' build. Corp Por, OSI. Source
