Snowden gets Russia web job

US security leaker Edward Snowden is set to start a job providing technical support at a major Russian website, his lawyer Anatoly Kucherena said yesterday, creating speculation the new employer of the fugitive could be Russia’s largest social network VKontakte.

“Edward Snowden will start working at a big Russian company on Friday, November 1. His job will be to support and develop a major Russian website,” Kucherena told the Interfax news agency.

The founder of VKontakte Pavel Durov, often described as the Russian Mark Zuckerberg after the equally youthful Facebook supremo, offered Snowden a post in August.
