Government Leaks: Ten Years Since Edward Snowden Jun 23, 2023

Show notes

It's been a decade since Edward Snowden leaked government documents. Today, we're reviewing the history of what led him to that point and what happened in the aftermath. We found it helpful to look at the story as a whole rather than the slow trickle of reveals that happened at the time. We hope you'll find this look back valuable as a historical exercise and as we think about the more significant impact of leaking government documents.

TOPICS DISCUSSED

Edward Snowden’s Path to Leaking
