Edward Snowden’s hot password tip will have you shuddering into next week

Whistleblower, Edward Snowden, threw away his job with the CIA to leak classified information from the National Security Agency, so he’s well and truly clued up on what is and isn’t secure.

An old clip resurfaced back in 2021, after Snowden called out the creator of an investor conference for running a Ponzi scheme.

This is how he put the conference organiser in his place.

And this is how he coped on Last Week Tonight With John Oliver, when his patience was severely tested – a funny, but disturbing watch.

Nobody would have guessed that Margaret Thatcher phrase. It’s a pity he blurted it out so we can’t use it. We might have to go with ‘ElonMuskIsTheWittiestManof2025!’

Nobody will ever guess that one.
