#1 Now really, what might we expect Mr. Greenwald to say; Snowden's information is now quite dated and the multi-agency damage assessments have prompted the appropriate programmatic changes and safeguards? Of course not.

#2 Theory out now is that Snowden was more a drop-box for a spy ring within the NSA or FISA court, and was tipped off, possibly by elements within the FBI.

Chinese root kit?

#3 With all this talk about Snowden being a traitor, everybody seems to conveniently forget his whistleblowing information that THE U.S. GOVERNMENT IS SPYING ON ALL U.S. CITIZENS, INSIDE THE UNITED STATES, in complete contravention to the Constitution.

Not that that surprises me .... >:-(

#4 Haven't forgotten that. However, the motive for releasing the information being "THE U.S. GOVERNMENT IS SPYING ON ALL U.S. CITIZENS, INSIDE THE UNITED STATES" was a side effect to the primary missions of getting intel to the Chinese (and the Russians) and metaphorically blowing up the whole works.
