The information is already released. Pushing to suppress it would be ineffectual while confirming that the book contains sensitive information.
- jariel 6y ago"The information is already released." We don't know that though. Snowden spent a lot of time doing what he did, and still has a ton of insider information. Anything he talks about in terms of his experience as a contract is probably subject to the agreement. If you work for Apple, and then write a book talking about all of the meetings, transactions, decision inputs, criteria for projects, talk about projects that never came to light etc. - they probably would probably sue and try to stop publication. So it's hard to say exactly what is going on.
- philipov 6y agoNo, we know that the book has been published and the information in it has been released. That can't be stopped anymore, because the people who are interested in it already have it. What we don't know is whether the information that was released is valuable or not. The only thing that trying to stop publication does is confirm to everyone that the information was valuable, giving credibility to it when before we didn't know how credible it was.
