re: #194 Ryan King

So he’s sitting in Russia and waxing on about surveillance and civil liberties in countries that have a much better human rights and surveillance record than Russia.

And not a peep about Russia. From Snowden or Greenwald or any of their acolytes.

Right.

That’s what irritates me the most. OK, I understand why Eddie himself doesn’t do it. Granted, it wouldn’t be the best idea for him to criticize Russia while begging to stay there. But surely this task could be overtaken by GG and the rest? Those that don’t risk being refused an asylum. They would have to do it if only to show that they don’t have double standards. But they just won’t do it.

It’s just like with Assange - he had promised to publish some explosive info on Russian corruption and then… didn’t.
