so ive been thinkin about this snowden character and here what i think is up.the gov has this new super computer virus.the chinese will get ahold of this bug via zip drives.these zips when combined will be the beast of viruses.because it just came out that they have the fastest computer in the world.if the chinese use this computer to decrypt his zip then the virus will release so fast that it will infect the whole nation before china can do anything.
snowden will tell them that they have to download all zips in order to view info.it will be a massive amount of code.once this code gets in and combined.it will be bad.
the infection will happen so fast that china will be snowed in for months.my guess.for the length of a season.basically destroying the chinese economy for three months.
just the hit to the financial will bring almost total chaos.with a level of damage equal to a civil war.it may take ten years to recover lost moneys.
