Tweet says:

He doesn't want to enable other states to enhance their surveillance capabilities.

I think it's great that this info has come to light, and that people have paid some attention to it. I think the way the US has gone about trying to nail this guy down is embarrassing. But it's depressing to know that despite everything, nothing will change for the better.

2012-May-21 post by Snowden about manufacturing a "Dead Man's Switch" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_man%27s_trigger):


You could write one. There are also plenty of orphaned Open Source ones out there you could pick up that need to be finished, if you want a head start.

It's not depressing. Embracing reality can be quite liberating. The more I try it, the more I like it.

So I guess Snowden is like Princess Leia with the Death Star plans, so all he needs to do is get a droid to transmit the blueprints he has to the modern day equivalent of Obi Wan Kenobi.
