Many people question why it is that Edward Snowden leaked the documents showing what the NSA was doing. In the article “The Geeks who Leak” MichaelKelley Scherer quotes Edward Snowden saying “The public needs to decide whether these programs and policies are right or wrong". Edward Snowden feels that we should have a right to say whether what the NSA and Government does it right or wrong and whether we want hem to interfere in our personal lives when I comes so social media or not. He has been charged with theft of government property, unauthorized communication of national defense information and willful communication of classified communications intelligence information to an unauthorized person. Two of these three charges violates the Espionage act of 1917 which was intended to criminalize individuals who engaged in spying.
Besides, if I was going to make a name for myself, it would be through hard honest work. Now, say I did publish it because I was sure it would have no impact on the United States. In the objective reality, I just wanted to famous with a great story. In the subjective reality, I used confidential data by selling out my country for self-benefit. As we say at work all the time, perception is reality (Cheesebro, O’Connor, Rios, 2010, Chapter 2).

For those that believe in the theory a true pluralist society, the rights of interest groups to compete may be seen as none thing short of necessary. This competition is a way to ensure that no one person or group always achieves the goal they set out for. If that right to compete and lobby is taken away then a true pluralism is impossible. Nearly half of all interest groups don’t have that right because it has been taken away by government. In the book A Voice for Nonprofits author Jeffrey M. Berry and David F. Arons does a noteworthy job of doing exactly what the title says: giving a voice to nonprofits.
This legislation was introduced in a rapid fashion following the attack of 9/11. Because of this, it had some points of vagueness and left it open for misinterpretation. Organizations like the ACLU fed on this and released multiple reports demeaning the substance of the Act. In doing this, it introduced fear to the public that their civil liberties were being greatly compromised. In reality, the majority of the legislation is directed towards people suspected of terrorism.
And they chose not to tell anyone of Matthew's whereabouts. Every punch, every kick, every action was the result of some decision. And even if every decision was made “in the moment” it still does not relieve the killers of their moral and legal culpability.

He had blamed Iraq to be holding terrorists, he had made America believe that Iraq had been under Saddam Hussein’s clutches and that whatever he had to say was law. President Bush had stated in his speech that, “Saddam Hussein is harboring terrorists and the instruments of terror, the instruments of terror of mass death and destruction, and he cannot be trusted. The risk is simply too great that he will use them or provide them to a terror network”. He had made Americans believe that Hussein was creating weapons and developing a nuclear weapon so that he could “blackmail” the world. President Bush had not trusted Saddam Hussein and he didn’t want rest of America to either.
This case is perfect for this question because Julian is being victimized by publicly sharing what he knows, about the privacy of civilians. If the theory of free speech was applied, then, civilians would have their privacy and the right to interact and speak about any topic with any given opinion, and no such thing as spying personal conversations would ever had happened. And even if they did happen, Julian Assange would be more than in his right to publically express his knowledge of the issue. As the journalist Oliver Stone wrote, “Julian Assange did much for free speech and is now being victimized by the abusers of that concept.” Looking at the case study above in the perspective of Julian Assange, he created that website so that everybody else would gain knowledge of what was happening inside secret agencies, government... What he did can be justified using the Kantian duty-based theories, where he did what he thought everybody had the right to know, his intention was to aware; he was altruistic in the sense that what he did was fully for the benefit of
Mass Media carries some social responsibility, it should enable communication informing people responsibly with the factual knowledge without any kind of bias. These days, sometimes we can find many instances where in mass media had exceeded its boundaries providing information based on rumour or too much information or sometimes irrelevant information as well. The media releases stories without knowing the entire story, or if there is any truth to it. Persons arrested for a crime have the opportunity to defend themselves in court. Once the media takes control of the story, the accused person is depicted as guilty in the eyes of the community.
