The individual responsible for one of the most significant leaks in US
political history is Edward Snowden, a 29-year-old former technical
assistant for the CIA and current employee of the defence contractor Booz
Allen Hamilton. Snowden has been working at the National Security Agency for
the last four years as an employee of various outside contractors, including
Booz Allen and Dell.

The Guardian, after several days of interviews, is revealing his identity at
his request. From the moment he decided to disclose numerous top-secret
documents to the public, he was determined not to opt for the protection of
anonymity. "I have no intention of hiding who I am because I know I have
done nothing wrong," he said.
