That sounds like an argument for anarchism. I am very unimpressed by political philosophies that take arguments to their logical conclusion.
What seems to me to have worked is understanding that a government is necessary, that it has the potential to misbehave, and therefore we should carefully design laws and processes to constrain it. I would like to see opponents of mass surveillance do this, which seems more productive than what I normally observe.
