Edward Snowden on Donald Trump, Obama’s Presidency, Activism & Liberty & his life in Exile<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

In this interview with NSA-whistleblower, activist and human rights advocate, Edward Snowden, we talk to him about the role of politicians and whether he thinks that Donald Trump will misuse the power of the surveillance state. In addition, we talk to Snowden about his usual day day in Russia.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • With Donald Trump in Power is absolute tyranny inevitable given the power of the surveillance state today?<\/li>\n
  • What is the role of the individual in curbing power? Does she or he have the instruments to change the course for the better?<\/li>\n
  • Is there a difference between morality and legality? Is there a precedence where breaking the law is the only resort?<\/li>\n
  • What is the meaning of liberty today and how does it effect our daily lives?<\/li>\n
  • Which laws have been recently passed to expand the surveillance in Russia, China, UK, Germany and the United States?<\/li>\n
  • How does Snowden’s normal day in exile look like and why did he choose to stay in Russia?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    All of this and more is addressed in the video below:<\/p>\n
