Ex-NSA contractor Edward Snowden has delivered an “alternative” UK Christmas message, urging an end to mass surveillance. The broadcast was carried on BBC Channel 4 as an alternative to the Queen’s traditional Christmas message. The 30-year-old has temporary asylum in Russia after leaking details of US electronic surveillance programmes.
Snowden opened his two-minute message, recorded in Russia, with a reference to novelist George Orwell, author of 1984, saying the surveillance technology described in his works was “nothing compared to what we have today”.
