I feel very similarly and came here to make almost the same comment. I am glad that Snowden exposed what he did, but I can’t think of a single headline with his name in it over the last decade that I haven’t rolled my eyes at. Often the thought going through my mind is “why do we care what he says?” or maybe “does he have any relevant expertise on this?”. He often seems to weigh in on things only tenuously related to the leaks or not related at all.
