Is there a Nobel Prize for having Balls ?

If there is I think that this might be more appropriate tbh.

Peace Prize and I'm thinking Mahatme Ghandi - Edward Snowden and I'm thinking principled, moral, courageous - but not necessarily peace though.

I don't know where they got that idea from, he's succeeded in making everyone more uncomfortable using modern communications infrastructure, and the solutions are not yet convincing enough to get back the privacy everyone thought they had. He probably won't win the prize anyway (and the whole thing is pretty invalid anyway, Henry Kissinger won for war crimes, Barack Obama won for being elected the first black US president and consequently committed war crimes and imperialistic killings, and Alfred Nobel was an arms manufacturer. This prize has a real peaceful pedigree)

Is it? It means nothing. They gave this award to Barack Obama a few years ago. It's a joke.

How, by leaking information that can get overseas spies arrested and possibly executed? What a joke...
That would be a good thing if he did, so yeah.

Isn't spying against the laws of the country they're spying on? And did he actually leak info on spies? Pretty sure he didn't.

I can tell lots of "newbies" are pro NSA on a bitcoin forum... Strange.

First of all not US secrets are out yet. Nothing about Bigfoot, Area 51, who shot JFK or what company did the demolition job by installing multiple tons of TNT near people's office for days before 9/11... Smiley

adjust basically every post in here to end with "...according to Glenn Greenwald and The Guardian"


Why didn't The Guardian, or Glenn Greenwald, or Laura Poitras show any interest in publishing the previous NSA whistleblowers? Who said everything Snowden said and more, and who still live in the US, some of whom have never been charged with any offense?

I'm not saying there's a definitive answer to these questions, but there's more to it than what's in any news reporting, that should be pretty obvious.
