You should teach them to be good people by example and subtle advice. And above all, show them that programming is one of the most enjoyable intellectual activities and actually needs no computer at all. You can write programs with pen and paper, or just in your mind. And if somehow the government ends up watching live feeds of us all one day (I don't think we're there yet btw), then who cares. Professional athletes still win games when the whole world's watching. And we used to, or still do, believe in all-knowing God(s). Let's just hope the god of the next generation follows the 'golden rule' of treating others the way you want to be treated, and also making us in god's image. Or let's hope there's no god at all. Yeah... I think the news this week is that profound. NSA/CIA/FBI/etc have ascended to have nearly god-like powers... we must put them in their place, afterall, our country was founded upon the idea that no man can take away our God-granted liberties. That turns out to be a powerful and useful concept, whether you're a believer or not.
