Edward Snowden SXSW live stream

The Streisand effect is in full force here. I only knew about this interview because Congressman Pompeo asked conference organizers to rescind their invitation to him on the grounds that Snowden is a &quot;traitor&quot;[0].<p>I can&#x27;t watch this right now, but I&#x27;m looking forward to seeing it later tonight.<p>[0] <a href="http://www.opb.org/news/article/npr-sxsw-snowden-speech-has-conference-buzzing-congressman-stewing/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.opb.org&#x2F;news&#x2F;article&#x2F;npr-sxsw-snowden-speech-has-...</a>

There were a few gems in the interview...<p>&quot;We need public oversight ... some way for trusted public figures to advocate for us. We need a watchdog that watches Congress, because if we&#x27;re not informed, we can&#x27;t consent to these (government) policies.&quot;<p>A somewhat ok paraphrasing is here: <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2014/03/10/tech/web/edward-snowden-sxsw/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cnn.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;03&#x2F;10&#x2F;tech&#x2F;web&#x2F;edward-snowden-sxsw&#x2F;</a><p>One remark stuck with me &quot;....the NSA surveillance was setting fire to the future of the Internet&quot;. Absolutely!

if, like me, you can&#x27;t get the stream live (?), afterwards the ACLU will post it here: <a href="https://www.aclu.org/blog/national-security/coming-soon-virtual-conversation-edward-snowden" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aclu.org&#x2F;blog&#x2F;national-security&#x2F;coming-soon-virt...</a>

1. Did he really have the US Constitution as a backdrop? Is he Saul Goodman?<p>2. It&#x27;s a shame no-one asked him about his opinions on Russia&#x27;s recent actions. I know it isn&#x27;t anything to do with the revelations he exposed, but seeking asylum in Russia makes him part of the broader political game.

If the connection is this bad, why waste your bandwidth on video? I turned it off because I did not find the echoing effects tolerable to listen to.

Is there any transcript? The video (<a href="https://youtube.com/watch?v=CPrDqoaHHSY" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=CPrDqoaHHSY</a>) has a horrible echo. I couldn&#x27;t understand half he was saying.

Does anyone have a link to the transcript? The echo is really hard to ignore in the video.

I can hardly understand anything, so here is a transcript -<p><a href="http://blog.inside.com/blog/2014/3/10/edward-snowden-sxsw-full-transcription-and-video" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.inside.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2014&#x2F;3&#x2F;10&#x2F;edward-snowden-sxsw-fu...</a>

I&#x27;ll wait for a transcript. The audio quality is too poor.

whats&#x27; that awful echo ? can&#x27;t understand a bit

video of the event?

Not on first page? lol.
