Can I make a confession? I was late to the NSA story because I was trying to avoid Game of Thrones spoilers and I thought Edward Snowden was a character on the show.

If Snowden had surrendered himself to U.S. authorities, he almost certainly would have faced charges that carry penalties of decades in prison. He might have rationally feared being subject to years of pretrial detention and the kind of degrading treatment Manning faced. And if he had chosen to fight the charges, he would have risked spending decades in prison if he lost.
