Edward Snowden @Snowden

Whether you're the President or a pizza guy, you take a risk by trusting your secret to another in a free society, because what is truly "secret" is established by consensus, not law. The concept is encoded in our very language: "to share a secret." We've been made to forget. — PolitiTweet.org

Edward Snowden @Snowden

The truly secret was kept long before the passage of a "National Security Act"—and would be kept again after abolition—because the necessity is obvious. If you can't rely on kindred to keep your ᴛᴏᴘ ꜱᴇᴄʀᴇᴛ without the force of threats, it's not "obvious"—it's omerta. — PolitiTweet.org

One way of resolving all these secret-document scandals is to acknowledge that after 75 years of experimentation, the chief accomplishment of the "classification system" has been to make our government less trustworthy and our country less free. Abolish and reform it. All of it. — PolitiTweet.org

@zenyZenyatta This is probably bad for clout but I was not then and am not now sure we've seen the very lowest tick on the chart, primarily because the global economy is hostage to the worst slate of policymakers in generations. But... yeah. Got lucky. — PolitiTweet.org

@elonmusk There is also, of course, Julian Assange. Most know the name, but have no idea what he really did. He has been detained or in prison since 2012. Kept under maximum-security conditions today for the "crime" of publishing true information -- despite having never been convicted. — PolitiTweet.org

Edward Snowden @Snowden

@elonmusk There are many other names, too. Did you know Daniel Hale is still in prison for revealing 9 out of 10 drone casualties were bystanders rather than targets? He did a remarkable and heroic thing. When did you last hear his name on TV? It's a real problem. https://t.co/vqiuYQhrux — PolitiTweet.org

@elonmusk There's a selective blindness in for-profit, or for-state news. Most paid very little attention to her case, despite her receiving the widest sentence for the narrowest (most curated) disclosure. Hard to excuse, because her mother campaigned relentlessly to make sure they knew. — PolitiTweet.org
