I live in a country which has been spied on for years by its closest "ally". See Crypto AG scandal for more details. So in my case there's no "we".

Yeah, the most realistic trade-off might be installing OpenWRT and some tripwires to see whether anyone is trying to do something nefarious remotely.

Sometimes your own government is the most likely to spy on you.

I think zero trust or low trust within your LAN is also a good idea. So is firewalling ISP supplied routers.

Thats also fair. I agree.
