#3> On the same day, Pavel Durov, CEO of the social network VKontakte, offered Snowden a job as a security software developer.
In his career, hasn't Snowden been more of a sys admin type?[1]. Putting all the hoopla/outrage over his leaks aside, from a career perspective, would Snowden be qualified for a developer role? I guess my question is whether Durov's motivation is to get PR points or to get a suitable engineer for that role.

I'd imagine both potentially, he could always work in a security system administrator role alongside the main development team.
Definitely good PR though.

#9If I were him, a full-time job at a reputable company would be the last thing I'd want. Then everyone knows where you are, when you're there, etc.
A huge number of people would love to see him disappear (permanently)...
I'd be laying low, maybe writing a book about the whole thing and releasing it via a third party, if it was a matter of making income while staying off-grid.

Even Russians get it... Why don't more Americans get it?
