A realistic evaluation of the situation is in order too.

We are humans after all, and wireless communication is just too tempting.

In the end the Fat Lady has sung, and digital communication is compromised for the foreseeable future. The real problem is basically undetectable and easily copied.

One counter is to send text messages that have been encrypted using one-time pads. They can find out with whom you're communicating, but they can't break the message without figuring out the one-time pads, which is why you never re-use them.

The big problem with one-time pads is distributing them. This problem still exists even with text messages.
