Cydia itself is considered to be safe but apps that you may download via Cydia will not have been checked (as they are from Apple's App Store) and so may compromise your personal information without your knowledge.

No. Will the iPod Touch wake up in the middle of the night, sneak through the house and steal your wallet?...

on an iPod touch, if Springboard crashes, it'll reset your iPod and put it into safe mode. Like a computer goes into when it crashes and you restart it. The only difference is that you can work with ANYTHING in safe mode on your ipod touch, which is necessarily the iPods state after springboard crashing.
