POLL: Should Snowden Come Back to the US to Face "Justice"?

[delrem]

97. When DiFi got on her white horse named silver

and shook her lance to the sky, I knew we'd be at least twice fucked over before she was done.
But that's a different topic.

I think "The Snowden Revelations (tm)" are in fact important -- tho' I know that Snowden is an accidental figure -- because they put focus on a black on white proof of the existence of a total dragnet of internet data. The particulars and nomenclature of that dragnet is now part of our common vocabulary, so we can speak about it without fear. I mean e.g. the fear of sounding like some fisheyed freak.

But as to whether anything has changed: no. I don't think there's any change. The issue became part of a media cycle which, perhaps counter-intuitively (?), immediately inoculated us against any notion that the issue had importance.
