I think it does Snowden a disservice. He was very careful about exactly what information he leaked, and who he leaked it to.

Manning just seemed to bulk download info and release it directly to an organisation he knew would widely disseminate it without examining it. In theory what he did was better than Snowden, but in practise he endangered a lot of lives.

As I said, the point of comparison matters. I offered one, you brought up another; both of that kinda beats just saying "they're different" without also mentioning on what they're being compared on, which is what the post I replied to did. Or why they even have to be compared, for that matter.
