I don't think the commercial-and-for-profit part of the
story makes much sense. Omidyar doesn't need more money, but if
he like any other greedy retard wanted more money, then he
surely could expand his current business, which are 'legal',
'low risk' and profitable, relatively speaking. How much money
does the intercept make? I suspect a better question is "how
much money does the intercept lose"?
Easiest explanation is that greenwald and co. are not
publishing anything really important for the simple reason that
they don't want to have their balls cut by the leaders of the
free democratic world.
Or, perhaps, they are accomplices of the anglo-american
government. Snowden surely is no anarchist, but the kind of
political illiterate person who believes in 'democracy' and
'good' government.
