Button, Button, Who's Got the Button?

Details of the US whistleblower Edward Snowden's current whereabouts remain unclear, a day after he was reported to have left Moscow for Havana, apparently en route to Ecuador.

Ricardo Patino, the foreign minister of Ecuador, where Snowden is seeking asylum to evade being arrested by the United States for leaking classified details about its spying programme, said on Tuesday that the country knew nothing about his whereabouts or what documents he might be using to travel.

The Russian foreign minister added to the confusion further during the day, insisting that Snowden had not crossed into Russia. Earlier reports suggested that Snowden took a flight out of Moscow on Monday, having arrived there from Hong Kong the previous day.

China said on Tuesday [...] that the United States' accusations of Beijing facilitating Snowden's departure from Hong Kong were "groundless and unacceptable".

Why do they hate us?

The U.S. government can't find a man they claim is a traitor and a fugitive from justice, but by golly they can find you and me and every other American who uses a cell phone or non-anonymized internet connection.  But, shhhh.  That's a secret.  Between you and me.
 
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
