I don't think so. I do really believe he's trapped in that embassy, but I could be wrong.

I think Snowden is totally still a CIA plant. His story literally makes no sense. A NSA contractor works from home in Hawaii, has VPN access to top secret data, makes $200k a year, has a smoking hot wife and suddenly has a conscience -- takes all this data and runs to Hong Kong where he gives it to some news agencies and then flees to Russia, a country that pretends to be at ends with the US while secretly being in bed with it.

Assange has been discarded by his own government and is a prisoner in an embassy. Manning is in jail and probably will die there. Snowden ... is probably just a social experiment. Let's make sure America knows about all our spying abilities and not give a shit.
