the guy can already not come to US due to lots of things. what use is another lawsuit? i imagine if he'd ever show up they'd pretty much hang on public square him for what he did anyway? can someone tell me what they'd hope to achieve with another lawsuit?

The article says:

> “The United States is suing the publisher solely to ensure that no funds are transferred to Snowden, or at his direction, while the court resolves the United States’ claims,” the release said.
