CHAPTER 10
Whistle-blower
They elected me. The overseers . . . The [American] system failed

the journalists, Lindsay Mills returned to Honolulu from
her "island-hopping" trip to find their house partially flooded and
Snowden nowhere to be found. In a brief note Snowden left her, he

"I feel alone, lost, overwhelmed, and desperate for a reprieve from
the bipolar nature of my current situation," she wrote in her journal

difficult to reconstruct her past activities with Snowden.
In Hong Kong, if Snowden were following Lindsay's online jour-
nal, he would have read that his girlfriend had returned home, lost
her data, and needed a "reprieve" from the situation in which he had
