I would say Switzerland.

They have great privacy laws and a culture of secrecy from their banking history.

They definitely would have an NSA equivalent but with far less reach I would think. They are a "neutral country" as I see it so they don't need such a strong foreign spy agency...

At the very least, the US would be one of worse choice possible for privacy that's for sure.

Keep in mind that the spying done by the NSA was fully legal there. They had this whole framework of laws to justify and authorize it.

I mean the NSA intercepting CISCO routers to bug them ?

That's a bold move that most countries couldn't do...
