NSA Can Now Shut Down Your Snapchat

The recent news that the National Security Agency (NSA) has gained the ability to shut down Snapchat accounts has sent shockwaves through the social media world.
While the NSA has long had the ability to intercept and collect data from Snapchat, this new development gives them the power to completely disable accounts, wiping out years of photos, videos, and messages with the click of a button.
So, what can you do to protect your Snapchat account from government surveillance?
