Edward Snowden: Whistleblower or Traitor

Masters of Espionage: The World's Most Dangerous Spies

By: David G. Stone

Narrated by: Richard Bryce Wallis

Is he a patriot fighting for privacy, or a traitor who betrayed his country?

Edward Snowden shook the foundations of global intelligence when he leaked classified NSA documents in 2013. His revelations exposed widespread surveillance by the U.

S. government—not only on foreign targets but on millions of its own citizens. Overnight, he became a global fugitive, hailed as a digital freedom fighter and condemned as a national security threat.

Edward Snowden: Whistleblower or Traitor? examines the full arc of Snowden’s journey—from NSA insider to exiled whistleblower. Historian David G. Stone explores the impact of his leaks, the ethical dilemmas they raised, and the intense debate they continue to spark across the political spectrum.

For listeners of political biography, cybersecurity, and true stories of conscience and controversy, this book delivers the facts behind the headlines—and the questions that still remain.
