computer guy but he can't figure out how to get the information out on the NSA spying without the big grandstanding, hero "look at me I'm such a patriot", country-to-country tour?
Hell, Anonymous is able to pull off this stuff all the time and remain . . . ahhhh, what's the word . . . anonymous.
Snowden and Greenwald could have done that and alerted the public. Showden wouldn't have had to become the heroic martyr who fled and now holds press conferences, and Greenwald, well Greenwald would be just another reporter.
Get my drift now? Greenwald used Snowden and maybe Snowden allowed himself to be used.
They both could have done the reveal without this huge international production but it seems they wanted more.
I repeat, Anonymous does this stuff all the time. They just stepped in and got the Maryville rape case back in the news but no one can name them because they're not out for personal acclaim and big enough financial backing to start a media company. Seems I remember them being instrumental during the election also something about Romney's Orca get-out-the-vote election day fail. And maybe Rove's election day fail also.
But nobody knows who they are.
