This document appears to be a page (page 62) from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the footer ISBN and title). It details the timeline of Edward Snowden's attempts to communicate with journalist Glenn Greenwald, his frustration with Greenwald's lack of encryption, and his subsequent decision to use filmmaker Laura Poitras as an intermediary. The text also provides background on Poitras, including her wealthy upbringing, her work exposing NSA surveillance in Bluffdale, Utah, and her collaboration with activists like William Binney and Jacob Appelbaum.
