He was politically conservative, a gun owner, a geek - and the man behind the biggest intelligence leak in history. In this exclusive extract from his new book, Luke Harding looks at Edward Snowden's journey from patriot to America's most wanted.

Snowden did a half hour interview on German television last week it was big news in Germany. The complicit servile corporate US media did not touch the story. Its like they want the story to die so they can continue the 24/7 digital spying quietly. No way do the powers that be wish this story to get traction.

One would think it would be a great scoop regardless your opinion of the man and his motives.
