US whistleblower Edward Snowden, who was behind the leak of documents revealing mass surveillance programmes, is to give the Channel 4 Alternative Christmas Message tomorrow. He follows figures such as Ali G, Sharon Osbourne and Baroness Lawrence in giving the festive address which is the station's answer to the Queen's message to the nation. The channel said it will be his first recorded TV film since Snowden arrived in Moscow, where he has been given asylum.

Christmas message: Edward Snowden speaks during an interview in Hong Kong

Computer analyst Snowden became a wanted man more than seven months ago when his leaks brought to light secret National Security Agency documents which revealed widespread US surveillance on phone and internet communications. It led to not only embarrassment but also friction with other countries when the extent of the surveillance emerged. Channel 4 said that in his message he talks about 'why privacy matters and why he believes mass indiscriminate surveillance by governments of their people is wrong'.
 
Do I agree that a child born today will have no conception of privacy?

No, that's ridiculous. To a sheltered Pajama Boy, effeminate hot cocoa drinking cyber-nerd like Snowden, who lacks the social skills necessary to interact face-to-face, and lives a vicarious life over the internet.... that may seem like the new reality. Normal people who live normal lives will continue on unimpeded.

Edward Snowden is a patriot and hero kf the highest caliber and you are a Kool aid drinking fascist who clearly is suckling at the teat of big government.
 
the ultimate goal of the government is to reduce the expectations of freedom for all in order to instill the belief that they serve the state and the 1%. sadly, a majority of the population is buying in to it.

The ultimate goal of the Federal Government should be to protect the American sheeple from foreign elements and administer our laws.

But then there are self serving idiots like Snowden who make the task almost impossible. I'm sure you'll be shrieking hysterically when another 9-11 event happens.

I'm amused that paranoid dunces think that a nation can fight terrorism with both hands tied behind their back or that self serving idiots like Snowden should be given medals for making such tasks that much harder.

I'm betting those same dunces denounced Bush for not having presented 9-11 as well; paranoid dunces seldom have a solid grasp on reality.
 
its fun to watch you people bash your heads into each others heads.


much better than watching you merely bash your heads against a wall of facts that prove you embrace historically failed ideas
 
here is a fact of life for all of you.


When you are on the internets and crawling around in that series of tubes you are in public.


the logical fact will someday seep into your brains.

there is NO WAY to make any of it completely secure.
 
isn't your team fun billy?


they don't do facts.

they do "Ive been told to think this so I do".


thank fox news
 
On ANY electronic device you will have in the future you are in public.


there is NO way to secure them folks and this is the new world.

Remind us again what are historically failed ideas? You've said deregulation for deregulations sake but never actually given an example of what that is. And you've said nothing else.
 
deregulation for deregulation sake is what your party has done for decades now.

are you really that stupid?

Hmmm, so not even one example. And again you say 'historically failed ideas' which is plural and you've listed no other ideas.
