THE ACCENT
Blows to be Expensive
Edward Snowden adds to the list of confidential information filtering in a gesture of high risk

Considering the fate of other famous right now filtering of information, it is clear that the act of Edward Snowden is risky. Bradley Manning, the soldier who leaked tens of thousands of documents from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and diplomatic cables to Washington, has suffered an ordeal since his arrest in May 2010. Now, a court being tried for treason and for providing information to the enemy, which can result in life imprisonment.
The computer Hervé Falciani has had, so far, best of luck. The intelligence services fear for their lives, but the reality is that this Franco-refugee living in Spain after airing the list of 130,000 customers of the bank for which he worked, HSBC, to evade taxes in their respective countries. Justice chases him for violating Swiss banking secrecy, but the Spanish National Court denied his extradition. This list is just added Edward Snowden, a former CIA agent who now worked for the National Security Agency U.S. (NSA).
He is the one who uncovered the scandal severe splashing Barack Obama for maintaining a system of espionage which controls millions of citizens through large technology companies such as Google, Facebook, Microsoft or Apple.
Snowden has announced he says, from Hong-Kong, after learning that his country opened a criminal investigation to find the source that it renders the scandal is, it. He says that he did it because the Government does not want his country, which seeks ways to extradite him for publishing classified documents, destroy the privacy and freedoms.
All three have committed offenses under the penal code, but have favored transparency and even a lot of money back to the treasury. The battle is very uneven and likely to pay dearly for his affront to the system. But beware, in English and there is a clear word with positive connotations to what in Spanish is called only as a snitch. In this language is whistleblower (which reveals dishonest or illegal activities of an authority).
