Point taken. I guess I should completely amend my argument; the real point is that Snowden blew the whistle exactly on what makes the NSA so bad (nowadays).

To the surprise of no one who had been reading the news, though. It was mostly putting some details to thinks we already knew about. Still, I commend he did do it, and I wish he could live a life less controlled by those in power - but I don’t consider him a hero. More like a tragical figure.
