      Might not be your cup of tea, but Dual Core has a song called For Aaron that’s a dedication to him.

          Oh god… I was at a small party this weekend and my wife mentioned Snowden only for the entire group of people to have no idea who he was. We had to explain how he was the NSA whistleblower who let us all know about the global surveillance that’s actively happening. They didn’t believe us… It made us extremely sad =(

            Man was matter, that was Snowden’s secret. Drop him out a window and he’ll fall. Set fire to him and he’ll burn. Bury him and he’ll rot, like other kinds of garbage. That was Snowden’s secret.
