To be fair, if your server is taken over, there’s a good chance your other devices have been compromised first/as well, in which case you’re already in trouble.
No way. Servers are easier to compromise because they’re online all the time and by definition exposed to requests from the public internet
You can have a server without a public IP; that’s totally doable. An internal server that’s only accessible from LAN or a VPN is still a server.
Also, the majority of compromises happen because of user error (e.g., someone opens/runs the wrong thing) or an unpatched machine, not because of an exploit in server software/because the machine is always on. This is especially true in the business world where it’s often a combination of human error and the network not being segmented/ACLs not being set properly/etc (lots of cases of human error).
It’s also not that unusual for someone to keep their e.g., desktop always on or their laptop/mobile device in a low power state where it still has network activity despite being “off.”
Yes. In practice, servers are easier to own than computers
