i got a newbie question about this . if he got hacked because he linked his wallet to a fraud website does that mean if you connect the wallet to a genuine website they also can take everything if they decided to become bad or if they got hacked ?

just connecting your wallet alone won't cause that to happen, even if the website turns bad or gets hacked. it all depends on the permissions you approve.

you go to website A (genuine), you connect your wallet, you start a transaction, they ask for permission to move X amount of coins for X transaction, you approve it, they can only move that X amount and only do X transaction.
now you go to website B (not genuine), you connect your wallet, you start a transaction, they ask for permission for full control to spend your coins, you don't pay attention and approve it, your coins are gone and there is nothing you can do about it.
