Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kei te whakamahia a Edward Snowden i raro i te whakaaetanga i whakaritea e ia ki nga Ruhia ki te whakarite i a ia ki te noho noho, e ai ki tetahi kaitohutohu mataaratanga nui. I kii a Andrei Soldatov, i kiia pea a Mr Snowden kia kaua e korero mo te tirotiro a Ruhia engari me haere tonu ki te whakaeke i a Amerika kia ora ai ia i te whare herehere i te US. I whakapae ia i te kaitirotiro o mua o Amerika kaore i te "maama" me te kii kei te "ruru" ia mo ana whakaritenga me nga mana o Ruhia. Kei te whakamahia a Edward Snowden i raro i te kirimana i whakaritea e ia ki nga Ruhia ki te whakarite i a ia ki te noho noho, e ai ki tetahi kaitohutohu mataaratanga rongonui. Whai muri i te whakaatu a Mr Snowden, 31, i a ia ano i te Pipiri o te tau 2013 ko ia te kaimahi a te CIA i tahae i te tini o nga tuhinga whakaraerae, ka rere ia ki Hong Kong, ka rere ki Russia i reira i whakawhiwhia ai ia ki te whakarurutanga. Ko te whakatau a te Perehitini o Ruhia a Vladimir Putin i kitea hei whakahawea ki te Perehitini o Amerika a Barack Obama i te wa e kaha ana nga hononga i waenga i nga whenua e rua. Engari kāore anō kia pānuitia ngā taipitopito o te whakaritenga, ā, kāore anō a Mr Snowden kia kōrero ki a rātou. Ko Mr Soldatov, e whakahaere ana i tētahi pae tukutuku hei kaitiaki ipurangi o ngā tari mōhiohio a Mr Putin, i kōrero i roto i tētahi uiuinga ki te Daily Beast, he pae tukutuku rongo me te ahurea o Amerika. He kaituhi hoki a Mr Soldatov, he kairipoata rangahau me te kaitohutohu e mahi ana i te kawanatanga haumaru o Ruhia mo te tekau tau. I whakaarohia e noho ana a Edward Snowden i tētahi wāhi ngaro i Rūhia i muri i tana 2013 leaks i meinga ai ia hei tangata e hiahiatia ana e te Kāwanatanga o Amerika <unk> engari te āhua nei kua whakatūria e ia he toa i waenganui o te Whare Ma. I te iti rawa, koina te wāhi kei reira te kaiwhakapae e ai ki ngā Mahere a Google. Kua puta mai tētahi pakihi e kiia nei ko Edward's Snow Den ki te tari matua o te Perehitini o Amerika, nā te mahi pūkenga a ngā kaitapere ipurangi. Kaore he mea e tupu i te wa e paatohia ana te tohu mo taua mea, engari mo te wa poto i whakauruhia hei toa hukapapa, tuwhera i waenga i te 5am me te 11pm, e ai ki te thenextweb.com. He maha nga arotake i puta i raro i te raarangi, tae atu ki tetahi i whakawhiwhia ki a ia he tohu whetu e rima me te whakaahua...
E ai ki te kaitohutohu i whakahaua a Snowden kia kaua e kōrero ki a Rūhia. I whakapae ia i te kaiwhakapae kaore i te'maama' me te 'ruru' I rere a Snowden ki Rūhia mā Hong Kong i muri i tana tuku i ngā tuhinga rangatōpū.
