Is there a way to incubate people like Snowden? I suspect Snowden could be a spokesman or figurehead for movements in other countries, but I have a hard time thinking he could ever repeat another data dump without becoming a real spy. Could someone as public and recognizable be effective in getting inconvenient intelligence from other countries?
Doubt it, but we could incubate people like Greenwald in every country. Find someone articulate, savvy and train them in tradecraft so that people in every country have someone they can safely approach.
Citizens of many countries don't have the luxury of knowing which journalists they can approach with their leak.
