What do you have a Surface or something? What Windows devices do you have?
Not just you. Not me, but not just you.
The before and after really helps to see the extent of the damage. Verifies the reports.
Thanks for the heads up. They’re everywhere on this site apparently. Playing fucking mind games and spreading misinformation on every post.
God Bless America! 🇺🇸
That’s one of them. Can you name the other?
Our military is certainly aware of it.
It’s countering money laundering by the IRGC. Read up.
TIL you can also practice selective reading. Why do you think he hasn’t criticized the Russian government?
If anyone is interested, here’s what really happened:
“On June 21, 2013, the United States Department of Justice unsealed charges against Snowden of two counts of violating the Espionage Act of 1917 and theft of government property, following which the Department of State revoked his passport. Two days later, he flew into Moscow’s Sheremetyevo International Airport, where Russian authorities observed the canceled passport, and he was restricted to the airport terminal for over one month. Russia later granted Snowden the right of asylum with an initial visa for residence for one year, which was subsequently repeatedly extended. In October 2020, he was granted permanent residency in Russia. In September 2022, Snowden was granted Russian citizenship by President Vladimir Putin, and on December 2, 2022 he swore the oath of allegiance.”
You’re welcome, asshole.
TIL if your passport is revoked, you automatically end up in Russia.
I think I’ll take that advice. Thanks!
I don’t think you can say he didn’t make the decision to move to Russia at some point. You don’t get there accidentally, and his decisions most certainly brought him there. And that’s where he lives and has lived for many years now. I think you can see the hypocrisy of the situation. If he did what he did in America in Russia, he’d be dead. If he were FSB and leaked internal Russian intelligence, they would kill him. If government spying is his concern, he moved to the worst place, and practices very selective criticism. That’s primarily what I take issue with.
When his passport was revoked, where did he go?
There’s no ‘freeing’ Snowden. He dumped US intel, got scared, and decided to move to Russia of all places, where he couldn’t be charged or extradited. He has now lived there for a significant portion of his life. For the entire war against Ukraine. If he were half as critical of Russian or Chinese spying as he is American, I might see things differently. Point is, he made his own choices and moves a long time ago. His allegiances are clearly elsewhere. Maybe he was dumb enough to believe the Russians and Chinese respect privacy more than Americans.
I’d rather see Navalny freed.
!Put it in the autostart 🤷🏻♂️!<
Never.
I get it though, I held onto it for awhile before that extra few seconds got to be enough.
I’m an American so I can answer this question sincerely. When you are already the one winning, you work as hard as ever to keep winning. You innovate more. This is the American way. It’s why we’re the most advanced country on the planet, and it’s how we maintain that lead. Building off of the work of previous generations who made and did amazing things. That’s our approach and it works fucking awesome.
