Traitor or Patriot?

It is Edward Snowden own confession on his story from a NSA agent on computer system. He is an American in strong faith on the Constitution to sacrifice to defend it. It is an inside story exposing the massive bulk information/intelligence collecting on everyone on the modern communication device around the globe. The Five Eyes Network filters the information in the name of national security against terrorism. The 1984 is a crystal ball prediction of reality? The four massive data repository in Utah is fearful and wonder where Americans live under. Edward chose Hong Kong to expose to journalist and the world on this secret. This book is a wakeup call to evaluate the state affair. Edward is a traitor or patriot? Reader is able to decide.
