The following statement Snowden was probably recorded with a hidden camera. The statement was interrupted by an airport announcement ... then tears off the record.
"Less than a month I had a family, a home in paradise, and I lived very comfortably. I also had the ability to search without a court order your communication, to seize and to read. Everyone's communications at any time. This means the power to change the fate of people. It is a serious breach of the law. The 4th and 5th Amendment to the (U.S.) Constitution, Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and numerous statutes and treaties prohibit such a system of massive, pervasive surveillance.
