(a) Non-techie mundane people have heard about the vast wave of horrible kiddie porn and grooming stalkers just waiting to kill your child. Why would they turn off the only thing protecting their loved ones from harm?[1]

(b) What should you do? Phone up the tech support line and tell them you (essentially) want to look at fisting porn? What if they recognise your voice? What if someone finds out that you want to look at all that dodge extreme porn sites?[1]

[1] I'm not saying this is accurate, just how some people think.

a) I know a lot of parents. Not one actually cares about this. They care more than some nasty piece of work will nick their child's phone on the way home, which is far more realistic and common. I reckon the 1% are noisier than the 99% here.

b) No - see my post. When you connect the router and hit it with the first WiFi connection, it is configured by default to allow everything. At which point you can then tell them you don't want oodles of fisting porn shoved at you or just ignore the question and carry on getting your fix.

The only thing these statements prove is that the noiser people are consistently more likely to be wallies.
