Snowden's best known as an criminal hacker/spy who has managed to escape the U.S. government and is seen by some as a good guy.

Jason Bourne is an criminal hacker/spy who has managed to escape the U.S. government and is literally a good guy in his films.

I thought the connection was obvious enough.

Also, Jason Bourne movies seem to try to take on kind of a political narrative about the reach of government, privacy, cyber security and all that.

While Snowden's entire life story is centered around the political controversy of his actions and if his name is brought up, it's usually for political reasons.

In the trailer to the most recent Bourne film, Snowden is even name dropped.

The connection seems pretty solid, but I don't think ERB would ever use Snowden.
