If it costs you as good as nothing, you might as well do it.

Previously, time was the most precious resource. Now its tokens, and more cheaply at at.

Offensive security employees, tokens, and peoples' time are still a finite resource that get allocated based on target priorities and operational end-goals, even by state actors.

If you assume Mossad and NSA are Token-maxxing every single niche FOSS project out there to cast as large as possible fishnet on hacking all Average Joes on the planet just in case, then maybe using Mozilla and MacOS gets you hacked too, maybe even visiting HN and commenting here gets you hacked by some zero days you don't yet know.

Where does this open-ended paranoia argument end?
