One can justify all kinds of whistle blower revenge this way. Just remember that Snowden didn't violate the constitution.
Which is worse exactly: Violating the constitution or violating laws to expose those that are doing it?
To me it seems like the NSA was acting more traitorous than Snowden ever did.

No government can afford to be seen as tolerant of this kind of action from within its own ranks. Perhaps as a result of Snowden there will be better ways for government employees to vent their concerns, but that likely won't help him out.
