    Snowden didn’t have access to every government database, lol. Even if he said he did, he’s 100% full of shit, as there’s this concept called Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI). Extremely top secret info will be locked into SCI programs (although something that is in SCI doesn’t necessarily HAVE to be top secret) meaning you do not have access unless you are read into that program. And no, you can’t just willynilly hack the entire DoD SCI repository from a single location.
