Summary

This document is page 109 from a book, likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the ISBN in the footer), which is part of a House Oversight Committee file. The text details Edward Snowden's time in Russia, his asylum, the risks taken by his associates like Sarah Harrison and Julian Assange, and his subsequent media appearances and financial earnings ($20,000 from TED). It critiques Snowden's transition from a technician to a media figure and his rhetoric regarding facing prison versus escaping to Russia.
