firewalls wont have any affect if tapping takes place at your ISP. You could encrypt your messages, but i believe the FBI knows how most encryption methods work. I remember that PGP got sued because they didn't want to tell FBI how their software worked... so i guess other companies did give that information to avoid problems.

Anyway, you don't have to worry about all this when you're not a criminal. But still... these rules are very wrong... it starts to look like China all over the world :/.
