It outlines Greenwald's previous career as a litigator and entrepreneur involved in adult entertainment, his financial troubles (IRS lien), and his pivot to anti-surveillance blogging for Salon and the Guardian. The text notes a political alignment between Snowden and Greenwald, as both donated to Ron Paul's campaign.
