To mark the two In the years since Edward Snowden revealed the NSA's surveillance activities, Amnesty International has stepped up its campaign to get the charges against him dropped.
Despite US efforts to issue him, Snowden remains in Russia but is unable to travel as his US passport has been revoked.
"Snowden's actions have changed the face of digital communications around the world. "Thanks to him, we now know that governments are stealing and storing private information on a massive scale everywhere, without our consent," Amnesty International said.
Speaking in a streamed interview last week, Snowden said he was happy to hear about the little success he had made in the US when Congress did not extend the law allowing mass telephoning to the NSA. He added, however, that things are moving in the opposite direction in the United Kingdom.
"If you think it doesn't matter to you because you have nothing to hide, think again: it's about right in your privacy, a right that is violated when you make a call, send an email or search for something on the internet,” Amnesty International continued.
Let's mention that Edward Snowden faces up to 30 years of imprisonment if he returns to the US. Amnesty International says the price is shocking if one thinks that it has revealed human rights violations.
