Watching through the John Oliver episode with Snowden [1], that's pretty clear.
To sum up the interviews with people they did in the episode:
- When asked if people knew who Snowden was, they often either had no clue or confused him with Julian Assange. They often associated him with Wikileaks, even to the point of believing him to be leading it.
- They often saw his actions as damaging the US and its troops in the Middle East.
- They near consistently had a negative view of him.
- When given a simple to understand explanation of what he revealed (the government can see your dick pics), nearly all of them were surprised, had no idea that it was true (and exactly what Snowden had shown us) and shared the view that the government shouldn't have that kind of power.
