Docker doesn't turn off the firewall, but rather hijacks and repurposes it for itself. It's not any nicer, but it's not the same thing in reality.

Docker punches holes in it:

>By default, all external source IPs are allowed to connect to the Docker host. To allow only a specific IP or network to access the containers, insert a negated rule at the top of the DOCKER-USER filter chain.

Yikes. Should people read the docs? Yes. Should Docker not do this? Also yes.
