Being ON the Internet in itself means you cannot truly stop a
'determined government-level attacker', unfortunately. Especially true
in some countries (China, for instance). My own government, for
instance, probably has more reason to snoop on my communications than
most criminals, all other governments, and
Google/Microsoft/Apple/Facebook.

In the end, the price of being connected (and convenience) is a loss
of privacy and anonymity. You could always do a John Conner and live
off-the-grid, though.
