* Firefox, Thunderbird, Tor (rarely), dnf, zoom (for meetings). (What
counts as "services" here?)
* Other uses of internet are "under the hood" and mostly
unknown/invisible to me.
* Oddball: when logged in as root, and I launch a terminal, several
seconds later, I see a short wave of internet activity; this is very
consistent. What's going on there?
* No one is authorized to connect in from outside; I myself do not try
to do so.

purchases via paypal were rejected because the card had not yet been
activated.
"Not yet been activated" sounds like someone stole the mail and tried to use
your new card (new 3-digit code and new expiry date).
