Cloudflare just revealed on their blog that back in November a sophisticated hacker, likely a nation state, got access to some of their servers. This comes after a security firm identified a different vulnerability months earlier. This shows the true dangers of them overseeing all traffic and all cryptocurrency on all centralized exchanges. It's critically important you understand this:

I question that GetMonero.org is on Cloudflare. We should strongly reconsider this as we're downloading XMR wallet binaries from an organization not friendly to privacy. And the PGP public key to verify it is on the same Cloudflare website.

I do not have much say in this community as I’m new, but I ask you to bring it to the attention of those who do.
