Nope. I protect myself against reasonable risks. But if someone says
"I don't do that", and I have no reason to believe they lie, I don't
put in protections assuming they do it anyway.

And I like to bet that if someone says "I won't do this" they
actually won't do this. To assume that everyone around me is lying
and protect myself from it is one step from paranoia.
If you like being paranoid, be my guest. I think that kind of worry
is overkill, but then, we all have to have hobbies.
