Quotes on Snowden

I see Edward Snowden as someone who has chosen, at best, exile from the country he loves-with a serious risk of his assassination by agents of his government or life in prison (in solitary confinement)-to awaken us to the danger of our loss of democracy to a total-surveilla nce state

I never praised Mr. Snowden or said his actions rise to those of Mohandas Gandhi or other civil rights leaders.

where are the snowdens of yesteryear?
