I very much doubt it is safe for him, unfortunately.

Most probably he won't be there in person.

It's incredible that no one reacts against this. Imagine if they had done this 100 years ago. They would probably have been lynched.

Reacts against what? The fact that Snowden is not safe?

The NSA spy shit. Why aren't the reactions more violent, not even in America itself? People seem to be totally apathetic.

The Count was :viking:!

I hope things will change, and I do think they went too far and people *will* react, but the core issue is that people generally accept that there is going to be a state-organised control function to begin with. They like the bureaucracy and the state looking out for them, even when the state is abusing its mandate.

I never understood that. Even as a child I thought it was the most horrible thing in the world that the state could tell me what to do, even when I was not hurting anyone. I didn't know the term "victimless crime" back then, but the concept was clear already when I was five years old.

There is only one truth and it is that people do have penises of different sizes and one of them is the longest.
