Nothing like satire to show how ridiculous this uproar over the NSA scandal is:
Area Man Outraged His Private Information Being Collected By Someone Other Than Advertisers
Terrorist Living In U.S. Gets Why NSA Spying Such A Complicated Issue
My view of Snowden and the NSA scandal won't be popular here. But I think Snowden is a traitor. He is doing damage to our national security by stupidly spilling secrets to a communist government. Whatever you may feel about our government, the Chinese are much much worse. Snowden is an idiot, and like most Libertarians has no idea how unrealistic his naive ideas are.
