I think its a moot point, if the government is the attacker, who tries to spy on you specifically, there is absolutely NOTHING you can do to prevent that from happening.

The US government has (literally) secret laws, that grants themselves the right to go to another country and kill someone without due process or trial or any kind of repercussion if they 'accidentally' kill innocent bystanders.

Its sort of laughable to talk about end to end encryption and possible NSL when you really think about it.

Here you make the mistake of assuming security is binary. Making attacks more expensive and likely to be exposed are effective deterrents.

There are many things that people in us government would like to do but cannot afford it.
