Yes, is there some kind of scale issue where governments will always have such an advantage with Skynet that the resistance is never able to use it as effectively?

I'd say the governments have a disadvantage, because they're slow to adapt. Corporate beats government always.
However, let's assume that "agents" become real. All one would need to do is gain access to a GPU farm and run an agent botnet. I'd even go as far to argue that because the current tech is inefficient and expensive, it's more likely that there will be "resistance" that does this. Opportunity/wealth inequality tends to breed activism, and in the modern age, hacktivism.
Move fast & break things mentality, that is broadly adapted throughout the AI industry, will help achieving this for the coming era of activism, by making (a) really poorly designed solutions - basically anything in AI right now - and (b) not paying much attention to actual security.

Indeed. Market forces are not nearly as effective on governments. This is one of the biggest disadvantages of the state.
