I mean he literally just doc dropped a crap ton of classified files that he didn’t even need to explain lol. You could always go read those and learn how much the NSA spies on the american public.
A few years ago I was fascinated with him for understandable reasons, but every video I clicked on, he was just “blah blah blah blah blah blah,” and try as I might, I could comprehend absolutely none of it. Maybe it’s a “me” problem. But I’m sure we’ve all known the type of narcissistic people who can talk for hours without saying anything of substance, their intentness & confidence draws people in, that’s how he rubs me. That kind of person. Narcissistic person who can talk for hours without saying anything of substance.
Yeah, no, I have seen his interviews, he goes very well for the points, makes a lot of sense, he only stops when asked for solutions, as he does not see himself as the one who should choose for others.
He talks a lot about things non-IT people understand very little, which I understand goes far against him, but usually he does not have two hours to explain everything to the laymen.
But he says a lot of substance, and it had me worried from the start that people will reject his message. And we all will pay for it.
well that is reassuring to hear. I will take your word for it that every time Snowden opens his mouth he is saying valuable things, although I can’t comprehend any of it.
We already know the gist of everything he has said. We are being spied on. What can we do about it? I’m addicted to my smartphone. But I am nobody and nothing so… I carry on
You can try to avoid making calls and send SMS, instead use Signal or Matrix for contacting people.
Remove Google from your life - gmail is tricky, most use protonmail, search with duckduckgo or searxng or kagi, youtube is basically without 100% replacement, but there is still vimeo and peertube.
Drop Windows, everyone will help you with Linux on PC.
Phones go very tricky, iOS has no alternative that I know of, Androids have degoogled versions.
In 2019 I tried to switch to protonmail but I was apparently too hypervigilant about it because I didn’t provide a backup email because I was trying to de-google, well my lack of a backup bit me in the behind when protonmail wouldn’t let me get in with my password, they told me my password was wrong, but I swear it was right, and they wouldn’t let me back in ever again.
And last time I bought a laptop I took it to a computer repair place and told them to take off windows and put on Linux. They did it. I didn’t know how to use Linux, anyway that laptop which was supposed to be native with Windows, constantly glitched and rejected every attempt I made at using Linux.
And I exclusively use Android, I have no Apple products whatsoever.
In summary, as you can see I’ve been TRYING to do the right thing!
Everything he says is a rambling monotonous bag of nothing. I, for one, could not bear to read any book he wrote.

Could you link an example of the rambling? One persons view of monotanous rambling is another persons fascinating dialogue lolol

Well it’s not really dialogue if it’s just one person’s words…
