You [Edward Snowden] are, in my opinion, a hero. I really think that what you exposed is hugely important for the American citizens to understand that absolute power corrupts absolutely. These people had the ability to look into everything—and they still do—you're doing, and the fact that, through these years, it literally stopped zero terrorist attacks... zero. So, this sweeping, overwhelming intrusion of your privacy had no impact whatsoever on your safety.
