re: free services, a) they massively monitor and soak up data from the internet backbone. b) in addition to going through the ludicrous "proper channels" (secret courts and letters - arguably not compatible with democracy) they forcibly break in to said services to get more data - if you think they don't do this for paid and supposedly secure services you're delusional. But you don't. You just don't care.
re: getting angry too late.
Yes that is typically how it works. Not every person can be fully informed on every complex issue. At some point however a line was crossed on this issue and it became part of the public consciousness. To say these people don't deserve their privacy because they were too late to the party is disingenuous, unrealistic and frankly a really disturbing approach to take.
"You don't deserve your health because you weren't protesting when they _started_ to secretly dump chemicals in the waters - oh now that it's common knowlege you're pissed off? You got angry too late, you ignorant loudmouth."
re: traitor.
He's a traitor to the U.S. military. Treason is not a global binary thing. You can be a traitor to one person and a hero to another. In this case he has done far more good than harm to most people on this planet. You are at once short-sighted and narrow-minded for refusing to look beyond this fact.
