The best defence is always going to be being unknown.
As a matter of opsec, I mostly agree. But security is always best achieved in layers (and to a degree, redundancy). People running any CIA/NSA-backdoored operating system are compromised before even thinking about being discrete.
Always assume you will be surveilled. Always assume you will be caught. Ultimately it's strong encryption and total rejection of closed-source software that gives you the best defense against the pigs.
