How do I boycott the NSA? Especially as a non citizen!

My government gave the NSA the ability to mass-surveil our phone calls in order to stay good friends with the US. I'd surely love to boycott that.

don't the Americans have an amendment that allows them to overthrow the government? im not sure though.
