Edward Snowden: Mission Accomplished

[ZuWo]

Snowden has been useful in different ways. For one thing, his disclosures sparked a world-wide debate about how far governments and their agencies should be allowed to go when it comes to spying on their own people in the name of security and protection from terrorism (let's not forget that, in principle, a democratic government exists to serve its own citizens and not the other way around). Additionally, his actions have revealed the hilarious weakness and hypocrisy of the leading European governments.
