    The fact that snowden is on twitter is not all that interesting. But how he's covering his tracks might be.

    Is it a complex web of TOR and SSH tunneling :D

    Or is it something a bit more basic. Like, passing a note to someone who posts on behalf of snowden. Much Like Obama :cool:

    I'm not sure if it's allowed to speculate or not but I thought it might offer an interesting discussion.

    Why would he need to? They know where he is and he's not exactly going to be using Twitter for communicating anything remotely sensitive.

    The same reason he interviews from a "secret location"

    Good point Blowfish! If he's in Moscow, the Russians won't extradite him under any circumstances so why bother concealing his IP - still maybe he just wants to make sure he's not targeted by criminal gangs who might want to kidnap and repatriate him for a fee.

    Can't see Moscow letting him be harmed, least not for the foreseeable future.
