In this part of the speech quoted below, Obama talks as though he’s opposed to what Snowden did. This tells us he was actually in favor of it. So Snowden is a black hat, after all.
“I’m not going to dwell on Mr. Snowden’s actions or his motivations; I will say that our nation’s defense depends in part on the fidelity of those entrusted with our nation’s secrets. If any individual who objects to government policy can take it into their own hands to publicly disclose classified information, then we will not be able to keep our people safe, or conduct foreign policy.”
I consider Snowden a gray hat. At least for now. Not sure about him at all.

Exacly my thoughts as well!
Since it’s now obvious that everything Obama said in that speech was exacly opposite of what was really happening at the time, we can be sure the part about Snowden was disinformation also.
This is why Q referenced it - it puts his all of Snowden references in a much more clear light.
