FDISK, you seem to be trying to argue over what is or is not legal.  I have never said that what Snowden did was legal.

The existence of a law does not mean the law is MORAL or that it should be observed.  You are old enough to remember the Freedom Riders of the early 1960's.  They were breaking the law.  The law was wrong.  They did exactly as you suggest no one should do -- pick and choose the laws which they will obey or ignore.  They were patriots and they were heroes.

So is Snowden.

I have not said he did not break the law.  HE has not said he did not break the law.
