"The topic is not about how to circumvent authorities"
How so? You don't think that every person that is not committing a crime and does not give "the authorities" probable cause for invigilation has the right NOT to be spied upon? Whether it's a specific invigilation or spying en mass on the whole population (like here).
You like Stasi and KGB? They were also authorities that cared about public safety and were looking for the "enemies of the people" among their population. You would never want to circumvent Stasi?
Of course it's not possible to escape the invigilation by spying agencies in USA and its satellite states (Britain, Poland, etc...). All the traffic from ISPs goes to NSA.
And now the real problem. Virtually all those "private commercial" companies are fronts for NSA/DoD, CIA, MI5. Commercial interest is just a side benefit. Their real goal is to circumvent the oversight by legislature. USA and Britain privatize their KGB, so they can claim it's not about a totalitarian state.
It's like with Google, a front company of DoD and NSA. A couple of stooges got the best search algorithms from NSA, plus they got some money from the military-industrial complex (and most probably some NSA hardware), so they became the best on the market.
NSA wanted to spy on all computers in the world (in USA, they already had their own creation AOL, and now they have all ISP's giving them all the traffic), so they needed a cover. A private search engine was the best one (this actually had a good side effect, it gave the consumer some needed service :) ; another good one: Google Earth, gotten from National Reconnaissance Office). Now Google doesn't even hide its evil nature. They openly roam the cities of the world and collect wireless data on everybody.
Why would you need a slogan "Don't be evil", if you didn't have evil on your mind? :)
So this BlueCava may not be (most probably it is not) just a commercial enterprise. Making money on advertising may be just a sideshow.
So the point is, there is no escape from the evil bastards, because the commercial spies are linked to the spy agencies overlords. Unless there is an international law banning this corporate piracy, as Kropotkin mentioned. And of course, all the espionage beasts must be defeated. Like CIA, DIA, MI5/6 and all their corporate fronts.
I thought that the disturbed nerds running Microsoft made the greatest blunder in the history of informatics. Not only they have made an interface apparently intended for 5-year-olds, but even hidden the shutdown option, so it can't be found without extensive research (probably to discourage people from turning computers off, so NSA can use them at night for patriotic purposes. A journalist that was spied on spoke about odd behavior like the computers just turning themselves on at night and then turning themselves back off again").
But now Opera informaticians (or rather their bosses) made something even better. They released a browser... without the bookmarks..
