1. That's classified. nt

[RC]

2. Another question is, "Did he reveal any activity permitted by the Patriot Act?"

Which is the better question?

[bemildred]

3. That's all classfied. Why are you trying to get classified information, anyway? nt

[RC]

4. Because I had a government security clearance once.

Just wanted to see if they pulled it when i retired. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

5. We don't know. He knows how processes work at NSA and is in a position to bargain and can sell

what he knows. In this world there are a lot of potential customers for him. We don't know if he has sold anything yet but if he gets desperate or more angry at the US I wouldn't put it past him.

7. Wasn't he already talking about

trying to figure out what information he might disseminate to other countries about the US intelligence operations in their specific countries?

[AlinPA]

8. I didn't read that but would not be surprised if he's selling information on NSA processes.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

9. I don't know if he's planning on selling it but as I recall he was very clearly talking

about giving it away. *smh*

6. Of course. Why do you think they want him arrested? (nt)

10. I hope Snowden causes the NSA and PRISM great pain...

11. No. Everything he has had published so far was permitted under the Patriot Act.

However, it has been reported that he isn't through publishing all of what he found on the 4 NSA laptops that he stole.

12. We don't know everything he has

So I don't think that question has an answer at this point.
