Incessantly cynical distrust of the government is the new blind patriotism.

It is impossible to overmistrust the State. If you could imagine the lows they will go to, you'd be working for them by now.

Is it really impossible? Do you think there is literally really no limit to what they can do or what they will do?

No, but they operate at a scale beyond our comprehension, and use reasoning beyond our comprehension (or mine, anyway!), so it's not too clever to imagine that we can anticipate their limits...
But the most obvious problem: if the NSA or whoever had a backdoor to truecrypt and Android and iOS, they would not send that information to a local DA office to be leaked.
Please don't set aside critical thinking just because something confirms your biases.
