US spy chief Clapper defends Prism and phone surveillance

[Peter Lemkin]

I hope he had the forsight to close his bank accounts cash in any assets and has a reserve of cash handy or in trust with a trusted friend or family member or in an off shore haven. Hong Kong used to be relatively friendly in that way but I don't know if it still is since it changed back to China. He'll probably be able to write a book if nothing else. But he does have IT skills that are useful to others.

If he's not very fleet of foot [i.e. already in some 'friendly' embassy requesting asylum] I fear he'll be writing that book from an American prison...if writing is allowed [it is NOT in a maximum security one, like Manning was held under! The American Gulag is very repressive - no reading, no writing and no pillows - sometimes no covers or clothes]. As for his IT and 'other' skills and knowledge, I did notice that Russia offered him asylum....anta:. I'm pretty sure he won't take them up on that....it certainly wouldn't 'look' good!
