You say that like it's a bad thing.
Traitor (noun)
a person who betrays someone or something, such as a friend, cause, or principle.
Damn right he's a traitor, but only a traitor to the US government. To millions of people (like me) he's a hero.

And, I'd like to point out: Not everything the NSA has been doing is legal, even according to the terrifyingly broad laws put in place during the panic after 9/11. If you're going to wave around the "T" word...the traitors are in our government. They're the ones who would give up liberty for the illusion of safety. Also, Benedict Arnold is a silly comparison to make; read your history a bit more closely and think it through. Snowden may not be a hero in your eyes; I disagree, but I can't tell you how to feel about it. But, to compare him to Arnold doesn't even make sense.
