If you're giving untrusted software full access to your system, you're not in a position to complain about the system not being secure enough. Security starts by making mindful decisions according to your threat model. No system can keep you secure from yourself. I mean, it can, but it wouldn't be a system you have control over (see Apple, etc.).
There are many solutions that can mitigate the risks you mention. They might not be as convenient as what you're doing now, but they exist. You can also choose to not use software that siphons your data, or exposes you to countless vulnerabilities, but that's a separate matter.
