I'm curious...what specifically do you contest?

You all are stating that he is a national hero (paraphrasing)...brave, even, because he wanted to divulge the dastardly deeds of the peeping government on American citizens. He divulged all of this info almost immediately, yes?

So why has he been talking about other supposed things we do to other areas of the world? Why did he supposedly run off with hardware (multiple laptops, IIRC) loaded with who-knows-what?

Have you all not heard of insider threats spending their entire lives working their way into positions of power before suddenly being caught? Because it's a good thing countries don't do that tactic anymore...

Spoiler alert: spying is obviously a thing, still, and countries will do whatever it takes to cover it up unless the person is caught. And then everything happens behind the scenes to get that person back.

I will have to continue further analysis of your deepest recesses...

Nope, none of those things. (well, maybe brave because that takes balls, but on the whole his method of leaking was moronic). I have been stating that his leaks check out and he is pulling punches. You're the one implying the information he is leaking is untrue, which is what my question is about....what is the "media" blindly reporting that doesn't check out?

So my point remains the same.

Sorry, I need to get back to work in the first place, I'll have to continue the conversation later.

Must...resist...posting something....sarcastic...about not knowing...anything...about networking skills...or their relative pay amounts...

*sigh* Don't even know why I even mentioned everything. Obviously, the public knows everything, and he is a national hero (lol).

I wish you would. Know what people do for a living first though...

I guess I don't know my field or what I do or what any of my friends or coworkers do or make.

Bargaining chips. If he leaked everything he had the first time the guy would be dead by the hands of Jason Bourne by now.
