A Snowden Globe

The NSA leaker, Edward Snowden, has left Hong Kong, seeking political asylum in some other, undisclosed country. But the world has become quite a bit smaller for Snowden lately after having disclosed lots of embarrassing (but pretty much obvious) information about U.S. surveillance programs. So this made me think of a new globe, containing only the countries left that are safe or welcoming for him to go, which would be called a "Snowden Globe". And whenever anyone is thinking of leaking copious quantities of classified information, they might want to first study the "Snowden Globe" to try to figure out where to go afterwards.
