You have nothing to add to this discussion. Please take this rhetoric elsewhere.

This article falsely equates selling NSA tools on the black market with government whistleblowing.

Let's not get on a high horse about rhetoric in the comments?

It's the delivery, not the message. You tried to use sarcasm in a forum where it can't be too subtle to work (also, Poe's law is alive and well here). I imagine you would have received multiple upvotes instead of downvotes if you had taken a different approach.

Point well taken. Imagining Edward Snowden as my playful pathetic little brachiocephalic puppy dog stinking up his pew and being swatted on the nose with NEWSPAPER just made me giggle. I'll keep my GAS-lighting jokes to myself. Especially when it comes to LEAKING sensitive material...
