Assuming we're talking about some course of action other than running around in tight little circles screeching:
Which presidential candidate will you vote for in the coming election that you could be certain would not abuse surveillance techniques? Think about that for a few minutes. Keep historical behaviors in mind.

I have defenses in place for things I think need defending from random hacking or routine poking. I am aware that my use of credit cards, my cell phone, and other things can track my physical location, never mind my spending habits. I concern myself with this when I need to, but usually I don't.
I am also aware that if the government wanted to destroy me badly enough, it could. Just as an example, the tracks I leave on the internet while research obscure facts and issues often take me to sites that don't look good on one's resume. My cache dumps when I turn off IE, and I wipe other things routinely, but the tracks are out there, too.
Paranoia can wreck you. I've seen it happen to people. Don't let it happen to you.
