#5So, are the espionage charges against Snowden going to be dropped? Otherwise they want to convict a man of exposing illegal activity, which doesn't make a lot of sense.

Now would be about the best time for him to make that move. With elections upcoming and all that.

I don't see how anything else could happen here, unless the USA is truly a lawless country where the rich and powerful is in control without any consequences. So yeah, Snowden will still be on the run.

I fully agree. USA is lawless, for example U.S. blacklists International Criminal Court prosecutor over Afghanistan war crimes probe: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-icc-sanctions/u-s-bla...

There are legal and illegal ways to disclose illegal activity. The fact that the activity was illegal, doesn't automatically make any disclosure of it legal.
Not arguing one way or the other here, as I simply don't know enough about the situation.
