You don't stand a chance against a highly resourceful deliberate attacker, regardless of whether they're NSA or someone else (chinese, non-national, ...). I expect in the coming decade we'll see a digital armsrace which will end up in collective disarmament (through hardware-based security which cannot be bypassed) when it affects business in such a degree that the economy is harmed. There is one global constant in all nations and political philosophies: what is bad for the moneymen gets weeded out.

"Because offence is so far ahead of defence, you know we could shut down your power grid if it struck our fancy, and we know you could do the same to us. So how about we all stick to a smaller, tactical-level cyber-ops and call it a day?"
