Snowden has given a TED talk remotely. His interviews and speeches swirl all over the world. Transcripts appear daily and are available to billions. Even his initial contacts with reporters that led to these leaks were assisted by the most advanced technology. Think of it: if this were 1935, we wouldn’t know. For that reason, he might never have come forward. This is a beautiful example of how technology — despite all the fears of surveillance — really is striking a blow for freedom in our time. Governments in all times and all places are oppressive. What makes the difference is whether we have the means to discover their nefarious deeds and react to them. The market has given us those means. tucker.liberty.me/2014/06/02/snowdens-cry-for-freedom/?refer=libertyme
