The former NSA contractor leaked classified information on global surveillance programs run by the NSA in 2013, making him one of the most influential whistleblowers in U.S. history. The U.S. State Department filed three charges against him shortly after his identity was made public by The Guardian — theft of government property and two counts of violating the Espionage Act of 1917 through "unauthorized communication of national defense information" and "willful communication of classified communications intelligence information to an unauthorized person."
In essence, as Obama said, Clinton had classified information, but Snowden had classified information.
