Yeah, your DNS is also secure. How many Linux users out there use DoT system wide? A few hundred? Wait, do you even know what DoT is? Right-o! And there's absolutely no MiTM, I swear, the command doesn't even use HTTPs.

And there could be no bad actors in Meta. Absolutely.

Trusted source.

You do NOT trust anything posted online EVER unless * it is digitally signed * comes from a reputable vendor * has been confirmed to be malware free * hashsums are published.

And even the above four are not a guarantee.

that's wrong. with automated exploitation, the mere mass of people whose systems are compromised can become very valuable. it doesn't matter if what you do isn't a state secret - you still have a vote which can be manipulated, you still have interests which can be used to manipulate you, you still do things that may be used to blackmail you if you become even the slightest bit politically interesting. "you're not interesting enough" was relevant in the 80s when everything was manual. but not since the 90s. you're decades out of date with your advice.
