I think I don’t believe anything unless it comes from people I know.

Overkill, perhaps. But it has kept me safe and digitally un-monkeyed with all these years. If I receive anything unsolicited or untriggered by my own doing (signing on with my Apple ID on a new, different device, etc.) I automatically just figure it’s bullshit in some form.

And since nothing negative has ever resulted from my ignoring/deleting it, I figure I’ve been more right in my assumptions/hunches than not.

YMMV. I don’t know enough about this particular topic to speak with any authority - Brad and others here would - but proceed with caution. And always trust your gut. I think it sounds kinda shady/fishy, and like they’re trying to get you to tweak settings you shouldn’t need to. But what do I know?
