Every time I think of Snowden I think of how quickly most people went back to sleep as if these revelations never happened. I do not understand how a sane person can trust U.S. politicians after his revelations. So many were involved or had knowledge of what the NSA was doing and that they were lying about it.

US basically fell on 9/11 and subsequent patriot act. I don't know what this country is now but it's not the USA.

The article says "A decade after Snowden exposed NSA’s mass surveillance in cooperation with the British GCHQ, only about 1% of the documents have been published – but three major facts can finally be revealed thanks to a doctoral thesis in applied cryptography by Jacob Appelbaum"
But...does that mean that Snowden only made the articles accessible to journalists, and not accessible to the public, like on a wikileaks type server?
