		</div><p>Edward Snowden, who has confounded US officials since his abrupt departure from the country two years ago, has just found a new megaphone in Twitter.</p>
<p>The former National Security Agency (NSA) worker, who leaked classified documents about government surveillance, started tweeting on Tuesday.</p>
<p>He had more than 185,000 followers an hour after his first tweet, “Can you hear me now?” Mr Snowden is following just one account – the NSA.</p>
<p>Like other high-profile people on the messaging service, the account has a blue and white check mark, indicating that it was verified by Twitter.</p>
<p>Neither the NSA nor Twitter immediately responded to requests for comment.</p>
<p>Mr Snowden is currently living in exile in Russia. He faces charges in the US that could land him in prison for up to 30 years.</p>
<p>Twitter has hosted other controversial figures and groups. Whistleblower website WikiLeaks has a verified Twitter account, as does Kim Dotcom, the founder of illegal download site Megaupload.</p>
