I presume you know what "plan" means?
Well, what you plan and what takes place ain't ever exactly been similar.

Have you ever tried to build LLVM in debug mode? I have. Got a 600+ MiB executable that took a full minute just to load itself. The turn-around time was ridiculous. GCC's build, meanwhile, was less than a tenth of that. Much faster, too.
Keep the net freely accessible to all, even those you don't like.
Especially those you don't like. Those you do like need no protection from you.
Is this a movie trailer?
An intelligence unlike anything Humanity has ever faced! You can't adapt {they're faster} You can't overcome {they're stronger} and they're coming! Dec 1st to a theater near you.
There have been a few recent movies on that form.
I, Robot (2004) shows a weak, non-self-modifying city-control computer.
Her (2013) shows an almost-friendly non-corporeal AI OS. It gains superintelligence, but chooses to sublimate rather than wipe out humanity.
Trancendence (2014) shows a human mind uploaded. It gains the "nanotech" superpower, but none of the others that a proper superintelligence would have.
No movie has shown a true superintelligence, because (1) we can't imagine what it would do, (2) if it was hostile, we'd lose, which most marketeers wouldn't like, and (3) if it was friendly, it would quickly end with "everything perfect for everyone forever"; not much of a story.
Yep.
Certificate validation is a defense against Man-in-the-Middle attacks. But the "Let's Encrypt" system is vulnerable to a MitM attack between its server and the server that would request the proper certificate.
It can thus be fooled into issuing false certificates by the very people those certificates should defend against.
You seem to underestimate the inventiveness of a superintelligence, and the diversity of hardware controlled by computers, and our reliance on them. It is also possible to use electronic communication to make humans do work for you.
For example, if the AI solves the Protein Folding Problem, it could contact a Protein Sequencing Service and have them build proteins that fold into self-replicating nanobots.

SMTP requires that those fields be world-readable. Or do you propose that SMTP servers somehow route email to the appropriate recipient without being able to read who the recipient is?!
No, what I propose is that we start using a protocol other than SMTP for email. I don't think such a protocol exists yet, and I don't know much about how it would look, but I think AC #49126801, right above, has some good ideas.
