It's taking forever to download from that website...
Nothing too new in the interview. It was interesting to see what kind of person he is. He is not going back to the US to face the music because he thinks he would be put on a show trial. Smart move.
I don't buy his story that he couldn't have tried to make the information public in other ways without leaking sensitive information, but it seems the entire system is indeed very broken, with very little
public oversight over private contractors (like him ironically). If nothing happens whatsoever, the NSA/government will have to think twice before hiring more private companies to do the spying for them. Or they might risk ugly incidents like the Snowden affair to happen again. To me, the interview shows that Snowden is a computer nerd, who was unable to deal with the pressure of what is going on - naive - but then again not so naive as I thought he would be. He basically told us that all politicians (in Germany and elsewhere) are constantly watched, whether they are in high ranks or even in regional/municipal governments.
