I have been thinking, I will stop using all US brand of electronic, service and pc. Such as Apple, Cisco, Facebook, Microsoft, and so on.

And start using more Chinese brands such as Lenovo, Huawei, Asus, Acer, and other Japanese and Korean brands.

I will also use more open source softwares, and tor. Also stop using Google and Gmail. And start using more startpage.com and other email providers which are not in the US.

Any other ideas?

I'd be a bit more concerned about the way that the commercial companies use your data than the governments. Maybe this is a subject for discussion, but my opinion is....

If you secure your data and communications from private companies, you've also done a pretty good job of securing it from government snoops.

I have uninstalled my Ubuntu to Arch Linux now, because of privacy, also I have sign up for VPN paying with bitcoin, also email account hosted and encrypted in Swiss.
