It is reported by Wolf Blitzer on CNN that Snowden may have with him 4 computer laptops belonging to NSA. If this is true then this is more serious than most people were led to believe. However, it is likely that Snowden (possibly like Assange) will bargain for his life by saying he won't release publicly certain things ever. This is what I think at this point.
However, it is my thought that only about 10% of what he intends to release in information has already been released to the public worldwide.
A Wikileaks attorney was talking to Wolf Blitzer today and he was saying that Wikileaks is helping Snowden gain asylum in various countries through their legal department. So, it is possible that Snowden will go for refuge to Ecuador, Cuba or Iceland or some other country willing to harbor him.
Also, it was also said on CNN on Wolf Blitzer's news program that China wanted to be rid of Snowden and got rid of him as he was too much of a hot potato because they weren't on the other side of a proxy war with the U.S. like the U.S. and Russia are in Syria. So, China wanted it's hands clean as soon as possible with all this business.
Nice post with awesome points! Can’t wait for the next one.
