Did Snowden inform us about delivering those files to a foreign media source, China or Russia? Did GG inform us of printing information?

GG has tried to jump into the pros game, he does not have the knowledge to play their game. Guess what he is being watched nit only by the US but many other countries. When his mule appears in locations where others are which are being watched it will result in the mule being watched also. You want to talk of rights, what about rights of nations in protecting their countries? What about my right to feel life liberty and a pursuit of happiness?

Did you know anytime you use a phone the other party could be recording the conversation? Do you think every phone call you are party on is recorded?
