0. Make multiple encrypted copies. On DVDs (they are better than CDs and Blu-Ray discs; DVD+R are better than DVD-R), paper, cloud services like DropBox, OneDrive, Google Drive, e-mail it to yourself and to your friends, use P2P storage services like MaidSafe, Storj and Sia , etc. 1. Use proper font when printing PGP encrypted keys on paper. 2. Flash memory (SSD, USB flash drives, hardware wallets) is less reliable when not powered regularly (i.e. every week). 3. Use error correction methods like Parchive and ZFS. 4. Print on paper or store on digital media only encrypted data. 5. Your encryption software should use CPU/RAM-intensive KDF (i.e. scrypt with secure options - do not use defaults! ). First, encrypt with scrypt and then encrypt it again with PGP (using different password!) in ASCII armor mode before print it (other methods like QR codes may not be reliable as multiple copies of the PGP ASCII armor). Do not use the same password for the PGP because it's easy to brute...
The NSA is on our side, unless you are a scumbag who likes to take other people's property. The more collection the better. I have nothing to hide. If you do, you should be jailed so the rest of us can work on worthwhile endeavors.

DeleteThe reason we have the 4th Amendment is to protect against unreasonable searches; the Founders themselves, many of whom were war veterans, knew about spying and the like. The government should only be able to read personal emails of those people for whom they have a reasonable suspicion that they are involved in some kind of criminal activity. The phone was invented in 1876, and the government has needed a warrant to look at your phone records. That is the law. There may be times when there is probable cause without rising to the level of a warrant, in which case the government has the right to conduct lesser forms of searches in order to gather evidence to obtain a warrant, and there are procedures for this as well.
