As much as I'm glad NSA snooping came to light, I'm very uncomfortable with a rogue 20-something singlehandedly deciding issues of national defense. It is not enough simply that something be illegal. IMO, something must be highly unethical and capable of causing severe lasting harm in order to justify turning over classified information. Snowden is not a justice, an elected representative, or someone in general who we want deciding what we should and shouldn't know.
