Screenmancer Exclusive presents Top 10 Uses for a Repatriated Ed Snowden by Screenmancer Staff LOS ANGELES: With clemency calls for uberleaker Edward Snowden from the New York Times and other media outlets, Screenmancer proposes an alternative scenario. Here are some reasons to conditionally repatriate Ed Snowden. (All include house arrest, three-year unpaid contract terms, unlimited FPS videogame time, and free pizza.) And the Top 10 Snowden Stateside Scenarios are... 1) Hire Snowden as an unpaid Tech Tsar under house arrest in a three-year contract with supervision and oversight by the Big Eight Tech Companies. 2) Snowden YouTube lecture series on Security, Privacy, Piracy. 3) Free Tech Literacy workshops led by Snowden - topics from Snapchat's Permanent Bite, Doable Downloads, Bitcoin & Alternative Currencies. 4) Identify Best US Cities capable of hardware manufacture in a Bring It On Home Insourcing Initiative, headed by Snowden. 5) Cottage Industry Coders (CIC), create a network of home-based businesses to generate code for profit. Snowden trains and manages subcontractors. 6) The End of Anonymous, troll education and social media responsibility, a conference in conjunction with media outlets, politicians, educators. 7) Fortune 500 Free Tech Retrofit, streamline corporate America as a remote sysadmin. 8) Snowden Library, archive the documents he took as a database under the Freedom of Information Act, with redactions as necessary. 9) Teen Tech Teams, Junior Olympics of Coding, Programming & Gaming, emphasis on Open Source. (Instead of a medal, your start-up is funded.) 10) Ambassador to International Pirate Parties, including expatriates and developers of Pirate Bay, Silk Road-style sites, to reframe piracy and rework copyright and patent laws.
