How, when you don't even install the firewall configuration tool by default?

Settings -> Network, select your network -> Identity -> Firewall zone

that's possible with one click?

fine, then the only right decision would have been ship *that* as default and say "You're free to select another firewall zone" exactly that way BUT NOT ship danergous and unsecure defaults

there is no but and if

nobody of your user audience will lock down his machine manually when all seems to work and a user which is not able to manually switch to a more unsecure mode (by read 5 seconds docs or Google) better stays with shields up - better be safe than sorry

hopefully i die before the userbase growing up with that direction of wrong defaults is in the position to make decisions and technical implementations!
