Several things can be true at once. We don't have to be all-in on one side or the other of the Snowden affair. I've never understood why people seem so eager to pick a team on this issue.
People no like to think nuanced, simpler to think black or white.
That's probably the best stance.
I guess I see the leaks as a direct consequence to the action of various agencies and military, and I'm conflicting villainizing Snowden and villainizing the leaks themselves.
The government got caught red handed and I can't really see myself being on any side other than the one directly opposite to them on the issue.
