Snowden declares 'mission accomplished' on leaks.
It will be interesting to see what Edward Snowden says in a recent interview he has done for UKs Channel 4 TV on later today where he may release some further new information.
Rogue American intelligence analyst Edward Snowden has declared his "mission accomplished" after unveiling huge US surveillance programmes, but urged citizens to insist their governments stop spying on them.
In excerpts of his first major media appearance since claiming asylum in Russia -- which will be broadcast on British television on Christmas Day -- Snowden issued a staunch defence of individual privacy.
"Together we can find a better balance, end mass surveillance and remind the government that if it really wants to know how we feel, asking is always cheaper than spying," he says in extracts released by Britain's Channel 4.
The former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor sent shockwaves around the world by revealing the extent of Washington's electronic eavesdropping.
The short, pre-recorded broadcast will be his first television appearance since arriving in Moscow in June.

Hi Sky,
I did initially look at your thread many weeks ago, but have not kept up on it as yet...Initially I had not realised it was directly connected to Ed Snowden even though along the same lines. But I have just noted you refer to him on page 2 back in June...unless I missed his name on page 1..
I cannot believe that Ed Snowden first became known as far back as June... It only seems within the last 2 to 3 months..
Sorry :-[ if my thread crossed paths...but its title does at least relate to Ed Snowdens name , which now does connect to your thread as well !
Hope thats Ok :)
Here is a short Video I found that says its related to the Interview he was supposed to have done over Christmas eve/day.. that unfortunately If he did it I missed it...
Hopefully it will be repeated or the full version loaded to youtube for all of us to see..
