    I mean, you don’t have to be convicted to be a martyr.

    Look at Snowden.

      Speaking of… When was the last time we heard from Snowden? Haven’t seen his name in the media since basically the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

        He usually ends up in the news for shilling Signal.

      I don’t know whether it had a significant impact in Russia, but the rest of the world only knows/cares about the guy because he went back. Otherwise he’d just be yet another person murdered by Putin’s regime.
