I personally do, he actually risked his life to release information about the government spying on people. And there are for sure more advanced ways now. Even your phone is listening.

    He didn’t flee to Russia - he was going somewhere else and got stuck in Moscow on a layover because the US revoked his passport.

    That said, I don’t like him staying there either, but maybe he really cannot leave.

    I completely disagree about “facing the music” - it would have been a guaranteed and long prison sentence.

      doesnt look hes safe if he travels to any country that would extradite him to the US. i assume russian friendly country is all he will go to.
