Just found out about the latest Edward Snowden leaks from Kurt Eichenwald’s Twitters:
My God. Now Snowden is showing US classified documents to the Chinese, not just telling them things. Unforgiveable. http://t.co/SkuEF4mrJ2

Yes, that’s correct; Snowden is showing more top secret documents on US surveillance programs to the very pro-Beijing South China Morning Post.
And here’s the online article: EXCLUSIVE: Snowden Safe in Hong Kong, More US Cyberspying Details Revealed | South China Morning Post.
Documents seen by the Post and statements by Snowden show that Washington’s cyber-spying programme carried out:
- Extensive hacking of major telecommunication companies in China to access text messages
- Sustained attacks on network backbones at Tsinghua University, China’s premier seat of learning.
- Hacking of computers at the Hong Kong headquarters of Pacnet, which owns one of the most extensive fibre optic submarine cable networks in the region
