> I mean I wonder what kind of info he has given (if any) to these countries.

I assume those countries already had their hands on that information (and more). If it was easy for Snowden to get his hands on it, it would have been just as easy for them.

This information falling in foreign hands isn't much of a problem I would guess. The real fear is more information leaking to the biggest enemy: the public. I would not be surprised if part of the dealing of granting him asylum was that he stop leaking to the public.
