The United States government formally charged whistleblower Edward Snowden in June of 2013 after he leaked information about the NSA’s PRISM Surveillance program, proving American citizens were — and still are — being spied on by their own government. The former CIA contractor was granted asylum in Russia, where he still lives in an undisclosed location, facing charges of theft of government property, unauthorized communication of national defense information, and willful communication of classified communications intelligence.

Motherboard reports Snowden is about to see a huge push for support on Wednesday, when “the American Civil Liberties Union, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and other prominent human rights organizations will launch a formal campaign asking President Obama to pardon Edward Snowden for revealing the National Security Agency’s mass surveillance programs.”

The campaign was arranged to launch just two days before Oliver Stone’s Snowden hits theaters. Stone believes the movie will help people understand the severity of the federal government’s invasion of privacy.

“Seeing NSA agents use dramatized versions of PRISM, which could pull private data directly from the servers of Apple, Google, Facebook, and several other major tech companies, and X-Keyscore, a sort of hybrid search/spy engine for people, is far more visceral for most people than reading another Glenn Greenwald scoop or Snowden interview,” Motherboard noted.
