It's probably a bad idea to have no defense at all. Sometimes players will test your defenses by attempting a single jet PS. It's better to get a low amount of defense, which is big enough to prevent such attempts.
The usual method used to be to get a high nw/acre ratio and a lot of spies so you look like a bad target to grab and other players have a difficult time getting an op on you. You could also consider picking the dict government. Your spal will benefit and it might deter other players from messing with you, but if you have no defense you'd be missing out on the main point of the government.
I don't know if you'd be able to get away with such a strategy on the express server. Given the low number of players and the high number of turns, you'll probably be spotted by someone even if you do your best to hide.
