Assuming what was said is true, weren't these companies breaking the law?
We can argue about those laws being good/repugnant, but isn't the issue here that these companies have broken the law?

How much do you (and Tom) feel that way because you agree with Snowden's views on what "the civic good" is? Would you feel the same way (that "whistleblowers need all the help they can get") if his leak had been motivated by something that you could see why someone else might find virtuous, but which you personally find repugnant, with effects that he (and many many other people) saw as good, but which you personally saw as disastrous?
