Is any one immune from this, we have in all of us heroic and villainous qualities. I belive asking this question fosters the villainous as it asks us to judge something we dont entirely understand and the to judge the actions of another man
Not everything is black and white. Depends how you look at it.
The fact that 99% of websites now use HTTPS and apps like

likely thanks to him, he started a small snow ball turned into a giant.
Hero. He exposed the spy agencies had run amok and were no longer following the US Constitution. The US Constitution is the supreme law of our land - and anything violating, circumventing, or not following the spirit of the US Constitution is more of a threat to the US than any enemy can be.
At the end of the day, the battle we're witnessing is one related to intel agencies. It's a fight to overthrow the old guard (consisting primarily of the CIA, MI6, Mossad, etc) and bring about the new guard (NSA, DIA, new Mossad, etc). I remember one of the spookiest posts I read was on the Chans, allegedly from a Wikileaks employee on the run shortly after Assange was extradited in the dead of night in Oct. He said the new guard was hellbent on transhumanism and AI. Neither side is great. It's as if CIA is 1984 dystopia, and NSA is Brave New World dystopia.
Anyway, how this relates to Snowden: he was CIA, trying to undermine the NSA. CIA wants to kneecap them, reign them in, and cut off their public funding and support. He still dropped a giant truth bomb on the wrongdoings, which I appreciate.
No supporting evidence but could be propaganda to illicit desired response. Can't trust the chi-coms.
Hero. And the dominion whistleblower will be too.

Just commenting so I can read once this gets some traction
Yes.
Traitor. Farm raised spook
Snowden was a whistleblower that wanted the deep state to wake the fuck up that all their shit was being recorded and to shape up.
Snowden was CIA first, then went to the NSA with the purpose of exposing them.
This is why Hollywood made a film to lionize Snowden. He's their guy.
Originally I thought Hero. Because Whistleblower = good.
Then I heard some stuff about some of the damage he did releasing certain intelligence tools and I thought Traitor.
Currently I feel like he is REALLY good at appearing like a decent guy, but I think he is trying to save himself via that skill.
What he revealed about Government spying was super important, but I dont trust him at all right now, despite wanting to like him.
Traitor - from the perspective of the power-hungry warmongering scum.
Hero - from the perspective of anyone who doesn't want to be a slave.
