Morality in the age of tech surveillance - Edward Snowden 

Cutting off Edward Snowden in the middle of the sentence to make sure there is enough time for the horrible Huawei marketing presentation. I'm still shaking my head in disbelief...

Edward Snowden, I love you and everything about what you are doing and standing for. I will never not stand with you, Chelsea Manning, Julian Assange, and many others fighting to make a difference and make others aware of the B.S. our governments are hiding. You are a godsend. I am thankful for you, Assange and many others for putting your neck on the line, for our freedoms and making us all aware. You are not traitors, y'all are heroes.

The world should rise a monument to this man

20 minutes on this subject wasn't near enough. This presentation was an introduction to Snowden's world. I know that a fair amount of uninterested people will find an hour too long, but 20 minutes is too short, even for a non-elaborate introduction and this was clear at the end of the presentation. Although thank you for having him part of your program, it's a step in the right direction for educating others.

Great talk . Very sad the way he was cutoff. No subscribe coming here.

Since Edward Snowden I have been more careful about how I use my phone. I think He did a brave thing and surly will go down in history.

His speaking time could be way longer,or at least not that impolitely interrupted.

This man never went to a university. He learned everything by him self!! And he is the best!!!

Pardon Edward Snowden and give him a medal...

God Bless Edward Snowden.

Thank you Ed Snowden , you are my hero!! ✌🏻

The problem is the collection of the data, not the protection of the data. Well said Ed.

Edward Snowden and Julian Assange are the true heros of our time.

Wow.. I’ve been so angry for so long.. it gives me joy to see that people are standing up for freedom. I love the ending.. “ the only way to protect anyone is to protect everyone “ 👏🏻 🙂

Mr Snowden is an idealist. To perform an heroic act, I think idealism is often an essential ingredient of character. Many young people who are raised in military families are this sort. Other whistle-blowers have such family backgrounds. I doubt that anyone with a good background in American history would be idealistic. It is particularly a mistake of youth. His act of self-sacrifice was not honored by the American people. Our people are poorly educated and richly propagandized by corporate media. I think of the three, Assange, Manning, and Snowden who have challenged the imperial US state, Snowden has fared the best - living now in Russia with his wife in good circumstances. Julian Assange, a great hero who has not committed any criminal acts, suffers the most. Australia's governments have behaved disgracefully towards their honorable citizen and showed themselves to be cowardly in their subservience to US governments as has Sweden and the UK.

Whistleblowers will never go extinct because even in the bleakest situations, perhaps especially in the bleakest situations, the nobility of the human soul will shine through in some people.

He mentioned Huwawei, therefore he was cut off.

Law enforcement have volunteers who will watch you 24/7, surveillance vans, GPS, all cellphones are tracked, voice to skull technology, facial recognition technology and biometrics and etc. They can find anyone missing with all the technology they have and volunteers in the United States.

He talks intelligently about freedom.

I really wish he'd narrated his own book. I love listening to him speak.

“What do we do when the most powerful institutions in society have become the least accountable to society”

A meaningful & purposeful talk... to 'The people'... FINALLY. 20 minutes of realness & questions... which many WebSummit attendees may not be willing to find the answers to.

An incredibly abrupt & rude way for the moderator to stop Mr Snowden from continuing.

Doesn't that opening to Citizenfour just give you chills?

His legacy will live through all of us. Who watching this?? 2020

He was disclosing "encrypted" and was cut off in middle...

Encryption is the freedom. Unfortunately not material for the Web Summit but for the Web3 Summit. Thank you for being my favorite “influencer” of all social media, Ed. 😉

Edward Snowden we need you on the Joe Rogan podcast again where there is no time limit and no censorship !

Thanks for trying to help us

Thank you and stay free!

That was neat " Edward Snowden" " are you listening" then the lights come on sound so coo he really is a hero

i like his voice, thats one of the main reasons i watch his interviews and conferences

Snowden. Modern day Avenger

modern day hero

Snowden for President!! Given him a pardon!! We want our brother back.

Snowden you a HERO it's very good to wake up the world. And some people are seeing as a BAD person but in the real world YOU ARE A HERO

thank you Ed Snowden - you are the hero of good people of the world

The answer to final question in other words - Move to a trustless setup rather than a trusted setup. Or "Can't be Evil" not "Don't be evil"

Now this is what I call a real SuperHero

This just proves to me that everything I do in my day to day life is being followed recorded and watched the government's around the world are so currept!!!

Thank you, Edward Snowden.

Congratulations to Portugal for having Snowden as a guest in Web Summit but also arresting Rui Pinto

My hero

Wow. Very impressive intro.

BRAVO MR SNOWDEN! I AM HAPPY YOU ARE SAVE!

All that Ed Snowden did was to tell the truth he didn't do anything wrong please leave him alone people be angry that you hurt him in any way would be a very stupid thing to do he's a young guy very intelligent leave them alone you would be absolutely make a lot of people mad that's for sure cuz he's a hero

Changing is growing rapidly, But internet have been part of our daily routine with many errand to run with our life ... The Question here is Can our life move on without the internet??

I wonder what Snowden thinks about the whole world locking down, troops everywhere, & basically easing into Martial Law & New World Order?

Yooooooooo ! You See how those techminions cut og Off ! jbinternet shirt's earpiece told him to Shut that neighba DOWN NOW !

It is sad to know that 99% of the world population would have Snowden audit these lobbies yet we cant seem to do anything about the 1% holding the money.

Imagine that you are in an abusive relationship. You are not ,,suppose,, to expose your abuser. Abusers get angry if they are exposed. You become an enemy when you expose their abuse. Exposing abusers does not make you a Judas. Abuse needs to be exposed and declined. Or it will continue.

The only interview of Snowden that's actually full and uncut isn't called "full interview"....

You took a great step that many can not even dream....salute to you sir....big fan of you

You can see intelligence on him ,I appreciate for what you stand

Very informative indeed.

...amazing thing i am noticing right here...most people who respond/comment on youtube videos have "handles".(.i.e...BULLDOG158..etc)..here most people give their names...i am assuming they are their real names ...for no particular reason other than i am Donn Layne..yet..these are the very people who are DEFINITELY being watched if anyone is ...and i believe what Snowden is saying

thank you .👍💫💚🌠💫🌠💫🌠💫

Thank you very much to alm of you there ❤

Abuse is also huge in the beauty industry which has exploded

I now this is going on ill get an IT expert to go through all my devices

Sad thing is. It’s gotten worse since he came forward. They listen thru our cell phones

I think monitoring everyone all the time is something good, I hope they enough space to store all infrmations.

What if the collection was for an AI ? Manifesting ideas to humains . It would not be hard to know how each individuals and organise any criminal act or threats to anyone you were an AI with so much information and the capability of treating the data

STAY FREE .. loved that!!!

Technology like money is simply a tool. It's how it's used that determines the worth of the user.

How did you cut him off like that?

Edward Snowden deserves all my respect, you have been brave and have my whole administration. I wish you all the good you deserve.

It is about us getting his messages through. How many people left the place NOT looking at screens? It will be rather difficult to believe all the following summit... A new form of connecting to the internet, that means fighting against powerful people (you've seen how he was cut off - probably James's job was at stake) - but what a brilliant idea! Let us fight!

He's a hero my book only

He describes the KGB very well.

i wish assange was on here to

E.Snowden and J.Assange are international heroes. They are a symbol of humanity, honestly standing up for justice. Snowden has a great faithful wife and they deserve a happy life in beautiful Russia. They have helped the world avoid many dirty and cruel tricks of the U.S. Although the U.S. and its Western European vassals have always invaded or harmed countries around the world in the name of freedom and democracy. I wish President V. Putin good health, enthusiasm and wisdom to help Russia have enough strength and truth to protect this world.

Ed, could you discuss freedom of speech in Russia? Are the courts fair? Is the Russian press free?

I like this man

GOD LOVE YOU BECAUSE HE GAVE HIS SON JESUS AS SIN OFFERING FOR US SO THAT THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.

Make sure to tell satellite surveillance people for those who don't know they still thinking for themselves

This video explains why you can't be charged on anything; it's ridiculous for them to charge you wen the case is a catch22; a set up ( like if ur a robot; they knew people eventually will do wha u did); this world is in trouble wen it's trying 2 condemn, hurt people who are trying 2 help ( for nations not 2find how 2attack each other); gives u the future employment of being the protector from the paper tiger

I just want to know where they got all the Energon cubes.

Is it just me or do those blue cubes look like Hesco barriers?

The good version of technology and the internet is the cartoon "The Jetsons". Unfortunately in real life we have the elements of human nature and capitalism where greed and the hunger for power and control are not only prevalent but is considered a virtue. And when you combine that with a population at large that either refuses to believe that they are being manipulated and violated, or are too preoccupied or lazy to stand up and speak out against it, you have a real life 1984 condition of living that will continue growing exponentially. If people continue to stay asleep then our future is bleak. Thank you Mr Snowden for essentially giving your life to let the world know what we're up against. I hope it wasn't all in vain.

It's time we revisit the old 2 cans and a wire.

Have a look at pine gap Australia and what they are up to with the USA 🇺🇸

Edward Snowden is a fictitious character played by David Hoffman, his uncle is David Rockefeller jr.

The worst part is them playing games and starting wars with people's privacy

Is Edward Snowden a real personage or is he an analogue to "Emmanuel Goldstein" in George Orwell's 1984?

I was sure Trump would have pardoned Snowden ( he knows all too well about how he was spied on). Snowden deserves medals of honor and bravery.

Interesting More & more

Man Snowden looking sharp, I guess them Russian barbers and suit makers are really good.

Why do you invite someone to talk only to cut their speech when it goes against your sponsors?

The safest option is to post nothing online, say nothing on the phone, or in person, that could be misconstrued as a crime, whenever the government's "opinion" is a crime has been comitted at a later date. The US is a country of opinions. I doubt that any of us cares to have our opinions taken away. That is the same as stripping us of our freedom. Why should the government be allowed an opinion, but not the rest of us?

Stakes Race Freed, to chase Her love, the space My passion, her grace My longing, the chase The seeking, her place Her beauty, loves lace Her fruit, touch base The persistance, of pace The bidi, her bass Her bodi, her waist To feel, embrace Jittery, I shake
