How has the NSA surveillance story stayed live?

Barton Gellman: "Snowden paid very careful attention to what had happened to other whistleblowers that hadn't had a long-term impact, and was careful to produce the documents... If Snowden had asked me 6-8 months later [if this story and still been live] but he has got to have exceed every plausible estimation about impact. It's because he didn't realise the documents all at once."

Cryptome strongly disagrees with Barton Gellman and, according to Gellman and Greenwald, allegedly the view of Snowden, on releasing only a few documents out of the thousands being withheld. This paternalism toward the public self-deputizes the document holders as de facto government officials and the elective secretkeeping supports what the spy agencies do to deliberately keep the public in the dark. The vaunted debate remains restricted to a tiny few with access to the documents, all of them exploiting their withholding for commercial purposes. This is an inexcusable travesty based on the special privileges of journalists working in concert with officials.

Cryptome, 21 January 2014: This is an FOI request to Snowden, Greenwald, Poitras, Gellman, NY Times, for full release of Snowden's de facto declassified USG documents. Send to: Cryptome, 251 West 89th Street, New York, NY 10024. Cost of digital reproduction on USBs will be paid.

Contact with Edward Snowden

Greenwald was first contacted by Edward Snowden, a former contractor of the U.S. National Security Agency, in late 2012. Snowden contacted Greenwald anonymously and said he had "sensitive documents" that he would like to share. Greenwald found the measures that the source asked him to take to secure their communications, such as encrypting email, too annoying to employ. Snowden then contacted documentary filmmaker Laura Poitras in January 2013.

According to The Guardian, what originally attracted Snowden to both Greenwald and Poitras was a Salon article penned by Greenwald detailing how Poitras' controversial films had made her a "target of the government". Greenwald began working with Snowden in either February or in April after Poitras asked Greenwald to meet her in New York City, at which point Snowden began providing documents to them both.

According to Glenn Greenwald, he and Laura Poitras are the only two people with full archives of the global surveillance disclosure initiated by the former NSA contractor, Edward Snowden.

In October 2013 Glenn Greenwald, Laura Poitras and Jeremy Scahill joined to establish an on-line investigative journalism publishing venture funded by eBay billionaire Pierre Omidyar. Omidyar's "concern about press freedoms in the US and around the world" sparked the idea for the new media outlet. The first publication from that group, a digital magazine called The Intercept, launched on 10 February, 2014. Greenwald, Poitras and Scahill all serve as editors.

Greenwald reportedly lives in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, near Tijuca National Park.
