I wouldn't want to live my life like that. The reason why you don't think about tomorrow is because you're being hunted down and simply trying to survive that day.
@Doug Bevins keeping it a secret is the worse thing he could do. And he knew it,he isnt a traitor he is someone who wanted to help. And it seems you dont quite get it my guy.
@Doug Bevins Eh. The guy went against one of the most powerful authorities on the face of the earth because he was annoyed that they were breaking their own laws. Takes a gargantuan amount of balls to do so. Gotta give him a smidge of respect for that, at least. Edit: Also, having a whole country going for your jugular tends to make you a tad bit concerned about your safety? I'm not sure, I can't relate.
@Doug Bevins lol you're literally copy/pasting this same comment everywhere. You some form of US bot? This man had a better paid job than you will ever have, and decided to throw it all away to expose one of the biggest mass surveillance schemes pulled off (against US laws btw). You call him a traitor for exposing the governments injustice towards its citizens? The government betrayed the nation. I think you, a puppet, fail to understand that the government is ruled by the people, not the other way around. You would happily bend down and expose your ass to the government in the name of patriotism? Shame on you, thousands, if not millions died to protect your freedom to speak out against the power and you refuse to accept the honour for which you did nothing to deserve.
Doug Bevins imo he's still a hero but that thinking is good too doesn't mean he's so bad as a human because he just shared leaked files from the us to other rival countries like theres a spy agency for almost every country for a reason dow
Doug Bevins if I were a traitor to a giant corporation like the United States government I wouldn’t want to be famous, why would he need/ want fame if he is under mass surveilance
Ishaan Kulkarni The people didn’t get anything except knowledge, nothing will change. He tried more than any of us to change things but it won’t work until millions do the same
This man is a hero, or at least the closest thing the western world, can get to a hero, Thank you. "Sometimes the scandal is not what law was broken, but what the law allows." Edward Snowden
Why is the interviewer pushing the interview in such a hostile direction and not letting Edward speak? I thought this was an interview, not an interrogation
Well, these are the questions burning in the minds of people who are more intelligent than you. The Whistlerblower has already blown the whistle. It's now more interesting to know about Snowden himself than what he did. The only person to take a step so bold against the most powerful country in the world.
Snowden is a real hero and an idol for the modern society. I'm not American but he has my full respect. I watched the movie first just a day ago and had to inform myself about this legend. He really is one.
Plautes Yes, as corrupt as the United States Government was and How much catastrophes they have caused. How do you expect a government who has fed, clothed, and given you a career to react to being betrayed over surveillace? As powerful and corrupt as our Government is, Snowden betrayed this beloved nation over "truth"? Also he lives in Russia of all places, they definitely have a deal with him so don't believe he's all innocent over one situation. He even stated in an interview of his "planned" betrayal of the United States, in all honesty he deserves torture for trying to expose the government.
Gray Elite Exactly. And global surveillance in and of itself isn’t an actionable offense to be singled out. Even so, this is their way of global peace keeping.
As a UK Citizen I am ashamed of our government and our media. Snowden is a hero and I cannot wait for the day I get to leave this terrible country that has lost it's independence due to America. Nothing but shame. Cannot wait to leave :)
“The best thing about being sort of a marked man is that you no longer have to think about tomorrow instead you live for today ” This hits me hard. Stay safe world hero;, just be alright.
+Trevor Leon the propaganda is in the line of questioning, the guy expresses more views, and makes more statements than he asks questions....lets call it propaganda light.....
actually, he did ask some tough questions that many people wanted to know. This interviewer did a great job. Some people do accuse Snowden of many things, so here is the chance for him to answer to these accusations. A propaganda would be to deprive him of any chances to explain himself.
The line of questioning seems fine to me: He opened by saying he would return home tomorrow if the US Government stopped spying on citizens. So he was asked if he's in discussions with the US Government about returning. He said the US Government haven't talked to him. He said he's fortunate in that he brought a lot of money with him. He was asked how he accesses it. He says it's in cash. He was asked how much he has. He says he can't declare how much he has. He was asked why he ran to Russia of all places. He says he asked 21 different countries, and all of them declined except Russia. He was asked if he made a deal with Russia. He says no, because he destroyed his old life to work against survalence. He was asked if Russia would get secret information from him. He says everything he knows is already public now. He was asked if he could access more secret information online. He says all the information he has is stored offline. He was asked if he worries about his future. He says he won't think about his future.
If we look at history, the media has always had an agenda. The difference now - in today's world - is that the media does not create it's own agenda: The state dictates it.
1:51 "I burned my life to the ground to work against surveillance. Why would I suddenly turn around, just because I am in a different geographical location and say: Yes, now I am all about surveillance. That's what I would like to do from now on."
the best part of video is from 2:50 to 2:55 "i know how to keep secret and i also know when the public needs to know it " it made me think about some heroic movie but that i am watching in reality
The part about being a marked man is that you no longer have to think about tomorrow... You just live for today 🙂🙂🙂I feel him there ❤️🙁🙁#Real life Hero
1:00 the _"Russia vs freedom"_ point the interviewer is trying to make is meaningless. Russia doesn't need to be better or worse than other countries. There is _"freedom from"_ and _"freedom to"_ and you cannot assume the USA (or other nation) always does both simultaneously.
FSB like all other Intelligence agencies in the world knew about things more than an average Snowden that how the US is doing things across the world, cause they are intelligence agencies and they know the monitoring capabilities of other nations very well than a contract employee. Snowden revealed things to people, he helped us.
so lovely .sad that nice people have to go thru more heart ache for helping someone else get thru their mess.. perhaps it is a lesson to make us strong ,we can relate to that! love this Prince charming be safe..
These are the true hero's! They die for the American way! this is true! don't mix it up Russia terriorist! Russia stop! taking credit for your mistakes! We know the difference! You blame others, to throw your terrorism on to others! to save your selves! from your embarracment! sorry! Truth hurts doesn't it!
BBC at there best, had the chance to interview the guy more important in the last quarter of century and all they want to talk about is Russia, russia...
This man isn't just admirable, he's a saint! Definitely deserves the nobel peace prize. And for once, I have to take my hat off to Vladimir Putin for granting asylum to him where no other country did. Cheers to you, Mr. Putin.
I just watched the movie and near the ending of the movie I got to know that," bro.. this is a real person" I am like what, that's something extraordinary. That need serious guts. Respect🙏🙏. He made the history.

I think Snowden is a hero who should be celebrated in America. I can't believe that the pride of the old men in the NSA, CIA,FBI and probably homeland security is keeping a true patriot from being home. This is another example of government committing a crime and not being held accountable by the people. I am ashamed of how my government handled this and I think they should apologize the the American people and to the man that brought to light the deplorable action of a government that has lost its way.
everybody is wrong, you see russia like montser actually soviet union times was best times of citizens in east europe, everybody had jobs, nobody was homeless, free healthcare show me this in your super developed democratic bs countries
"The best part about being a marked man, is you no longer have to think about tomorrow; you just live for today."
-Edward Snowden
👏👏👏👏 You take everyday has it comes!
I think he just learned that he needs to think more about today. People get too hung up preparing for a day that may never come.
God damn he's a legend!!!
I wouldn't want to live my life like that. The reason why you don't think about tomorrow is because you're being hunted down and simply trying to survive that day.
So similar to that Hunter S. Thompson saying. "He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man" lol
He is a great hero. A man gave up everything to stand up against illegal, immoral activities.
Amen to that!
And the rest of the country went "Hey! Did you really do all that??" and the NSA said "Yea our bad." and it was over... I feel so sorry for him lol
he's a bastard that has sold the secrets of his homeland to a cruel, bloody criminal and dictator Putin.
Elia I suggest you do your research, since you are completely wrong.
Elia you watch too much fox news
Isn't it sad how the most American man isn't even allowed in America
@Doug Bevins You're a traitor for supporting the evils of the U.S. government.

Not just an American hero, he is a world hero.

I'm watching it now
He is the man everyone should look up to. Lots of love from Nepal.👏👏👏👏👏
When you have a child one day. Dont tell them to be Superman or a princess, a king or a president. Tell them to grow up to be like Snowden.
That's really beautiful.

that was badass ngl
A truely honourable man who seeked the best for humanity. He deserves praise, not to be threatened by his home country
This guy is an amazing example of humanity and intelligence
He is a real hero, a brave man. He wasn’t in it to gain any personal profits. Instead he gave up everything so the world knows. A true hero indeed.
As a UK Citizen I am ashamed of our government and our media. Snowden is a hero and I cannot wait for the day I get to leave this terrible country that has lost it's independence due to America. Nothing but shame. Cannot wait to leave :)
What do you mean by loosing independence because of the US?
Good luck
Edward Snowden: I can keep a secret.
CIA: :O

Of course he can keep a secret!
“The best thing about being sort of a marked man is that you no longer have to think about tomorrow instead you live for today ”

Americans should really stand up to protect this man from their government.
Lol thet barely know him
He killed it at 2:50,real hero...He made me download the video
Where can i download it?
@Mike Massingale
I am not sure how to do it off of RUclips, but if you download Snaptube you can download the video
Mike massingale Just go on google and search “download youtube” or “RUclips converter” and you type the link of the video in there somewhere.

Eduard Snowden is a hero! He defended the basic rights of American citizens. He should be awarded with a Nobel peace prize.
An amazing man and a great hero. History will remember this kind, brave man
the best part of video is from 2:50 to 2:55 "i know how to keep secret and i also know when the public needs to know it " it made me think about some heroic movie but that i am watching in reality
I pray for his safety.
he is a great man may he always be protected
Respect and love for you, BRAVE man
I am Indian. I support him as a human being for his great work.
Don't mix your self up with nativ Your not!

Setting aside how incredible this person is, Joseph Gordon levitt portrayed Snowden incredibly accurately
That BBC guy clearly hates Snowdens guts. Glad he was able to go on with the interview smoothly despite that.
This is what a hero looks like.
