I am well beyond millennial status and I approve of what Snowden did so I am not sure I believe the survey results.
Nobody is saying the survey conclusively proves that nobody approves of Snowden's actions. That's not how these things work. The summary says:
Among those aged 35-44, some 34 percent have positive attitudes toward him. For the 45-54 age cohort, the figure is 28 percent, and it drops to 26 percent among Americans over age 55, U.S. News reported.
So even if this survey is accurate, that still leaves a significant percentage of people in those age ranges who do have positive attitudes. In that context, it doesn't really make sense to say, "Well I'm in that age group and I have positive attitudes, so this survey must not be accurate." Maybe you're just part of the minority.
Of course, the survey could be inaccurate or misleading. Most polls are.
