Anyone agree with this quote: "OpSec gets a lot easier when you accept it's impossible to thwart a government attacker."
Basically, your anonymity and security efforts should be focused on private attackers, evil corporations, etc. Trying to avoid the government is a losing battle given how much power they have to spy, subpoena, and gather data about you.
It makes perfect sense to not defend against governments that are after you.
If we learned anything from regimes like the DDR, it's the fact that private citizens have zero chance of thwarting eavesdropping attempts.
