Edward Snowden an NSA(National Security Agency) fugitive is responsible for leaking some very sensitive official documents pertaining to US Surveillance programs like PRISM. With Snowden on the run from prosecution in his home country, the whole scenario puts a huge question mark on US. As confirmed by Julian Assange himself wiki leaks did help Snowden at more then one time. Edward Snowden was offered asylum by countries like Venezuela, Ecuador, Nicaragua and Bolivia but Snowden thought it more plausible to wait to see if Russia will approve his asylum request.
Seems like Snowden's wait was worth it, Russia has granted Snowden asylum for one year. According to snowden's lawyer Snowden may or may not decide to stay in Russia as of now. There are chances that he will leave for Latin American Countries that extended their offer to Snowden for Asylum.
Many in USA still see Snowden as a traitor who should be tried under Espinoge Act. But whatever thee truth is it seems Documents may not stop yet on Snowdens part at least. The Guardian a leading Newspaper fueled current scenario further by revealing details about another US Surveillance Program yesterday. According to the newspaper's released details, US authorities keep check on large Email, online chats and browsing histories databases without any authorization beforehand.
Things really are getting messy for United Sates now, it is quite visible from what has happened in previous days that it is loosing its grip on the world.
