BREAKING NOW!! Whistleblower Edward Snowden talks to South China Morning Post!
Ex-CIA contractor speaks to reporter from secret location in Hong Kong, revealing fresh details of US surveillance, pressure on Hong Kong, snooping and cyber attacks on China.

Surveillance whistleblower Edward Snowden has spoken for the first time since blowing his own cover in an exclusive interview with the South China Morning Post.

The ex-CIA analyst has been holed up in secret locations in Hong Kong since fleeing Hawaii ahead of highly sensitive leaks revealing details of US top-secret phone and internet surveillance of its citizens.

Snowden's actions have been both praised and condemned globally.

But he told Post reporter Lana Lam: "I'm neither traitor nor hero. I'm an American."

Today, he reveals:

* more explosive details on US surveillance targets
* his plans for the immediate future
* the steps he claims the US has taken since he broke cover in Hong Kong
* his fears for his family

Whole story should be posted later today.

I agree, to a point. My issue is that China is known to hack our gov't and just recently was accused of hacking military secrets. China also has an extradition treaty with the US.

I'm thinking the either the Chinese knew he was coming and/or want more info from him.

I dont believe that one bit man. If anything the US is letting them hack in or they arent hacking at all, so they can create cyber security bills to track u for your safety. China has denied these allegations. Not that i believe them either but remember when the US denied the stuxnet attack on iran then later came out the US really did it? They will do anything to lie to the public to get what they want.

It sounds like he was hired by the Chinese to do this. Think about it. He's only been on the job for 3 months, and before he got into the job, he was talking and making secret deals. He stinks.

Re: BREAKING NOW!! Whistleblower Edward Snowden talks to South China Morning Post!
Around lunchtime Monday, it seemed Snowden was about to fly the coop from where he'd been holed up in Hong Kong. He checked out of the $330-a-night Mira Hotel, to which the local press had tracked him based on the background of his video interview, then dropped even further off grid. There was talk of his fleeing to Iceland, and the Russians apparently offered to host him. But CBS News' Bob Orr reports this morning that there's no sign Snowden ever left Hong Hong — and that investigators actually have a pretty good idea where he may be.

Local reports from Hong Kong suggest Snowden is still in town — perhaps, as The Guardian reports in a long profile of his going dark, in a safe house, seeking help from lawyers and human right groups. Who could control that safe house remains very much unclear. There are no signs Snowden has received support from Hong Kong's government... yet. But many U.S. officials no doubt want him extradited and thrown in jail.
