I personally do, he actually risked his life to release information about the government spying on people. And there are for sure more advanced ways now. Even your phone is listening.

    There’d have been plenty of other countries that don’t have extradition treaties with the USA.

    I withhold judgement, but him going to Russia of all places (considering why he had to flee in the first place) never sat right with me.

    Putin has used him to boast his image btw.

    edit: I was just reminded that there were technical reasons for him initially staying in Russia. Maybe he really can’t leave, IDK.
