I appreciate your situation, and as you pointed out, if our secure channels are compromised, we are screwed.

However, I do believe that it is not easy for the government to read encrypted communications and data. I think the recent shutdown of two secure email companies demonstrate that.

I would recommend that you do two things.

1. use a computer that automatically encrypts all your data (like apple products do).
2. look into using that same tech on your web server, and setting up your own email server that encrypts all your email (not just during transmition).

Here is an example email server thay can do that...

Make sure you have a pro set it up as that will be critical in ensuring that all your emails are truly secure.

BTW: Notice how none of the white-washers are on this thread, I wonder why?
