Within a rounding error, 100% of people on the internet.

It’s a lot higher pct when you count vpns with JS filtering, ad blockers, etc.
If you trust your browser it's fine, and if you don't then both CSS and SVG are significantly more risky.
This isn't true at all.

Anything SVG does maliciously, it does by containing JavaScript, so SVG's worst case is a subset of JS's.

Remind me again what the ratio of browser sandbox escapes coupled with full RCE is between JS, CSS, and SVG?
