This document appears to be a page from a report or narrative (marked House Oversight) detailing the logistics and communications leading up to the publication of the Edward Snowden NSA leaks in June 2013. It describes the coordination between Snowden, Glenn Greenwald, Laura Poitras, and The Guardian (represented by 'Gibson' and Ewen MacAskill), including travel to Hong Kong and the setup of a contingency website with a 'dead man's switch.' The text focuses on Snowden's motivations, his specific instructions to journalists, and the editorial decisions made by The Guardian regarding Snowden's manifesto versus the NSA documents.
