I'm not sure that companies are the answer here, because companies suffer from The Levison Problem. Some goons show up with a gagging order and attach a "special box" to the server or implement some other kind of intercept in order to carry out "bulk collection". Or they simply demand copies of the private keys. This isn't a problem which a company can easily overcome. There isn't a simple solution to mass surveillance but one mitigating strategy may be to encourage more people to run their own web services, a la freedombox/freedombone/arkOS, and encourage a "friends host friends" policy. If enough people went down that route then it could affect the bottom line of various companies, and hence apply some pressure for meaningful change.
