Edward Snowden will deliver the “Alternative Christmas Address” on Britain’s Channel 4. In the past, the address was given by figures such as Ali G and Sharon Osborne. The “Alternative Christmas Address” is the channel’s answer to the Queen’s message to the country.

Snowden will say “Great Britain’s George Orwell warned us of the danger of this kind of information. The types of collection in the book – microphones and video cameras, TVs that watch us are nothing compared to what we have available today. We have sensors in our pockets that track us everywhere we go. Think about what this means for the privacy of the average person.”
