Snowden Ready To Dump More 'Truth' On NSA
National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden has denied charges he is spying for China and vowed to release more details on the top-secret intelligence agency's ''direct access'' to tech companies' servers.
''Truth is coming, and it cannot be stopped,'' Snowden said during a live blog on The Guardian website. He said the US government ''is not going to be able to cover this up by jailing or murdering me''.

Former vice-president Dick Cheney told Fox News he thought Snowden was a ''traitor'' and warned the analyst might be spying for the Chinese government.
''Being called a traitor by Dick Cheney is the highest honour you can give an American,'' Mr Snowden responded, ''and the more panicked talk we hear from people like him, [Dianne] Feinstein, and [Peter] King, the better off we all are.''
He called Mr Cheney ''a man who gave us the warrantless wiretapping scheme as a kind of atrocity warm-up'' for the war in Iraq. And he ridiculed Mr Cheney's claims he was a spy.
''Ask yourself: if I were a Chinese spy, why wouldn't I have flown directly into Beijing? I could be living in a palace petting a phoenix by now,'' he said.
