Snowden also admitted if they are personally targeting you it's game over unless you're a master of tradecraft and encryption. If you have an unencrypted bootloader then they can break into your hotel room while you're either sleeping (or drugged) or not around and evil maid attack. They did this in Dubai already to a Ukrainian fraudster they were after. They could also just plant bugs/cameras and watch you type in passwords, or rent the room beside you and set up Van Eck/TEMPEST equipment. They could mess with the power socket in the wall to do encryption analysis as well or replace your powerbar with an evil bar. You would need guards to watch your room, a SICP tent and TEMPEST proof NATO standards laptop, OpenBSD to softraid encrypt the discs leaving no bootloader (or carry around the bootloader on a usb or CD), and you would have to custom manufacture the equipment yourself in Taiwan to ensure no backdoors and pick it up in person, or manually solder in hardware firewalls to block signals from leaking out of proprietary blobs.
