[QUOTE="uncle money bags, post: 2382564, member: 8377"] How, in this day and age, does not having the info on your person make you less of a target? I sort of agree with your second sentence, but what kind of a fool would he be to have the info on his person when the ability to store the info secured in an off site or cloud storage solution is so easy? This isnt the pre '90s with dead drops and secret hand shakes. Well, mostly any way. It is far more likely that there are multiple backups to this info in several forms and that is why he is still walking around. He only becomes less valuable when all of the info is disseminated and he cannot be used to prevent that from happening, if that is even possible. As far as trusting Greenwald's word. Well, thats your prerogative, im not so trusting. I think if Snowden had just tried to sell the info to whomever, he would probably be room temp and smelling nasty right now. And to Putin. Whether or not he has any more info from the Snowden theft than has already been disseminated is debatable for sure. In my opinion Snowden being given safe harbor in Russia has much more to do with Putin poking a stick in America's eye while we are being led by such weak leadership. He is not interested in starting WW III because it would not increase Russia's influence in the world right now, if ever. I tend to believe that there arent any world leaders seriously interested in starting WW III except those who believe it is the path to their salvation. I wont comment on Gen. Dempsy. [/QUOTE]
