Questions Pertaining to Edward Snowden Article.

 Eric raised some serious debate regarding the NSA.
-- Were his actions worth while?
--Will he be seen as a martyr or a trader?
--Are you willing to give up your privacy for more protection?

According to a CNN article "Pleading for asylum after spilling American secrets, Edward Snowden told Ecuador's government that he fears inhumane treatment or even death if he's handed over to face U.S. espionage charges, Ecuador's foreign minister said Monday."
The government classified this as an act of terrorism, but in all reality he was keeping the government in check. We the people are apart of the checks and balance system. This man felt insecure about the fact our government was invading our right to privacy and is now facing possible inhuman treatment. --At what point is patriotism taken too far?
