I think we should be looking for technological solutions. I want tor VPN etc. To be widespread. We can't count on politics

  You could not be more wrong. Technological "solutions" can only punt the issue down the road a few months or years, after which your "solution" will also be outlawed, and never mind the collateral damage. The problem lies in folk lacking understanding and being scared. That's what needs fixing. Your problem, on the other hand, is perhaps in lacking understanding and being scared of politics... unfortunately politics is all-pervasive. You cannot make that fact go away by burying your head in the sand and trying to work around the roadblocks that it throws up. While you're busy trying to avoid politics, those who are playing the game are winning. Just remember that every time you are tempted to put your head back in the sand - while you are trying hard to pretend politics doesn't exist, the fundamentalists, spooks, industrialists, bankers etc. are playing hard & to win at all costs. The easiest targets for them are the ones who don't push back because they aren't playing. Which means you. Avoiding politics == getting shafted.
