Edward Snowden reveals the funny side of the apocalyptic leaks of Pandoras Papers – Market Research Telecast

Former US secret agent Edward Snowden has spoken on Twitter about the Pandora Papers, a leak published this Sunday by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ, for its acronym in English).

The funny side of this serious story is that even after two apocalyptic leaks from a law firm and offshore finance, those industries are still compiling vast databases of ruin, and still securing it with a post-it marked as Do not filterReads the text. I take my hat off to the source! , he adds.

The document, which is the most comprehensive exposition of financial secrets of the ICIJ, is the result of extensive journalistic work that reveals that the offshore money machine operates in every corner of the planet. A total of 35 world leaders (active or who have already left power), more than 100 billionaires and more than 300 senior public officials from more than 90 countries would be involved.

Snowden, who lives asylum in Russia, faces accusations in the US of violation of the Espionage Law and theft of government property after he caused a large international scandal in June 2013 after handing over thousands of classified documents from the National Security Agency (NSA) to major outlets such as The Washington Post and The Guardian.

The US Justice indicts him at least 17 crimes of espionage for having published confidential information, while activists from around the world support the former CIA contractor for having brought to light such activities of the US intelligence agencies in collaboration with several allied countries.
