Let's draw a parallel to something more tangible than the cyberwar we don't see. Recently there was a number of high-profile cases where police got into a clash with unarmed civilians, with disastrous results. Should police be shut down completely? Would you be safe in a city with no police? Many cities in the world have places where the police don't go, and those are dangerous places.
NSA and CIA serve important functions. They just need to be properly balanced.
Sometimes, yes. When the corruption and brutality is so bad that there's no other option.
--Would you be safe in a city with no police?
In Acapulco, the answer was yes. The police went on strike and it was so much better without them that the people didn't want them back.

Also, we cannot confirm or deny that the NSA and CIA do anything important.
There is a middle ground here, but people are (rightfully) foaming at the mouth with anti-NSA rage. In my eyes, this whole situation (NSA going off the map and doing whatever they want) stems from giving them free range with little to no oversight. They simply need better oversight and real consequences for leadership who don't act in the public interest (as determined by a neutral party, albeit a neutral party with top secret clearances).
See, I can use a word or phrase in an internet comment as an excuse to be miserably pedantic too.
The US signs a complete unconditional surrender on the deck of the $SHIP of $NEW_WORLD_POWER - at least that would be my guess based on history.
We don't stop for genocide.
