Snowden wasn't the first to try to expose unconstitutional behavior. Many have tried to "go through proper channels" and they all were ruined and nothing changed.
Snowden spoke the truth with nothing to gain.
I watched NSA director James Clapper lie to congress. It was said that he didn't review the questions he was sent in advance of his hearing before congress. He didn't have to answer. Do you think it likely he didn't look at the questions before appearing before congress? Really?
He refused to answer other question hearing, he could have refused that one.

As for fleeing to Russia; he was transiting through Russia when US revoked his passport, stranding him there.
Rosa Parks broke the law AND did the right thing.
