Re: People need to take security more seriously

said by N3OGH:

So, you're going to tell me that an ISP that states in their TOS that they can terminate my service for downloading the latest "girls gone wild" video, or looking at porno pictures can't tell me I have to use a firewall??
Yup, they can monitor/restrict the flow of data to and from your computer but they can not tell you what software you must have installed on your PC. Now if they forced users to run a hardware firewall that would be great, but if my ISP told me to run a software firewall I'd drop them like a bad habit.
