Summary
The last document from the Snowden archive was published on 29 May 2019. The arguments "The remaining documents have aged" "Other major media outlets stopped reporting as well" The budget "Editorial priorities" "My intent to seek other partners" "Nobody wanted to close it" Snowden started reaching out to journalists months before having any material to share. In December 2012, he contacted Guardian columnist and former attorney Glenn Greenwald, requesting that he set up a secure communication channel, though Greenwald didn't know how to do so. Snowden shared the archive gradually. On 31 March 2013 he sent Poitras a link to an encrypted file called astro_noise, which she downloaded and filmed herself doing so, but had no key to open it.
