I watched the movie "Snowden" last night.
It is about Edward Snowden, the NSA (National Security Administration) operative who exposed the NSA's role in monitoring just about every cell phone call and email in the world. He was labeled a "Traitor" and charged with Espionage (carries a death penalty in America) just days after he made this public.
He did this by releasing declassified documents of people's conversations, including the Prime Minister of England, the Chancellor of Germany, as well as President Obama. Most importantly, he released the programs the NSA was using to spy on, not only the rest of the world, but all Americans as well. The USA courts have since ruled that the NSA's programs were illegal and thus, caused them to be shut down.
Here is the link to the movie - www.imdb.com/title/tt3774114/
Watch the Trailer and then come back with your thoughts.
BTW - I thought it was an excellent movie......very informative.
