Since NSA core mission is being ahead of everyone else, a claim that capabilities have increased a lot in the last few years is not FUD.

Without any specific evidence, it's still FUD.

What would specific evidence for "we don't know how much progress they have made since the last time we had concrete data about them" look like?

The FUD is implying they've made significant progress. You're right, "we don't know" isn't really a falsifiable statement, in this context.

Is there a certain time period after which we can say it's not FUD? Like if we go 10 years without any additional clarification after the Snowden slides, is it still automatically FUD?

I'm confused -- are you asking when an unsubstantiated claim is not FUD?

Not all educated guesses and reasoned estimations are FUD

None are, actually.
