It's too bad most of the files he took out of the NSA will never see the light of day.

Ah that's unfortunate, I didn't realize that. The prism stuff was a real bombshell tho, verified what everybody kind of knew, that the US doesn't consider any country or people in the world worthy of respect.

Depending on who you believe, the remaining documents aren't all that interesting, only go into more detail on things we already know, or require much more investigation to flesh out, but I'd rather judge that for myself. The whole thing is really suspicious, what with a Silicon Valley billionaire having bought the documents and eventually cutting access to them. Pierre Omidyar is far too close to the "deep state" to trust this kind of information with.

This gives a broad overview on the topic.
