Developer cocktailpeanut shares a practical check for the Tailworm scare: open the Tailscale dashboard, click the Filters dropdown on the Machines page, and select Property: Tailscale SSH. Zero results means you're not using Tailscale SSH at all — most casual tunnel users probably never knew the feature existed, so the actual exposure is likely far smaller than feared.
