Snowden is a traitor and if not shot should be jailed for a long time. But then again, I'm not sure he's living the high life in Russia either and over time, as his political value fades, he'll be in a kind of prison anyway. I picture some cold bleak apartment in a decaying Russian tenement with a paltry state pension - after all who would employ him after what he did to his last employer? A comfortable Western cell might start to look good after some time.
