Edward Snowden, Part II?

NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden was widely seen as a hero for exposing NSA spying on U.S. citizens, while also exposing a laundry list of secrets threatening America’s national security. However, a new mole appears to have surfaced inside the U.S. government and has been following in Snowden’s footsteps of leaking vital national security information.  Did Edward Snowden open Pandora’s Box for government leaks?

The U.S. government has concluded there’s a new leaker exposing national security documents. Proof of the latest leak comes from a news story regarding national security documents, which was published last week by The Intercept, the same news site which published Snowden’s leaks.

The Intercept article focuses on U.S. government databases of known or suspected terrorist names during the Obama administration.  The article cites documents prepared by the National Counterterrorism Center dated August 2013, which is after Snowden left the United States.  This means the leak did not come from Snowden, but from some other source.

In an interview from last February, The Intercept’s Glenn Greenwald said: “I definitely think it’s fair to say that there are people who have been inspired by Edward Snowden’s courage and by the great good and virtue that it has achieved.” He added, “I have no doubt there will be other sources inside the government who see extreme wrongdoing who are inspired by Edward Snowden.”

Government officials are currently investigating to find out the source of the new leaks.
