That's one way of solving it as such measure only covers one's
conventional household needs. Barely - as there's this guest Wi-Fi and
that curious neighbour kid.

There are laptops that are expected to connect for foreign LANs. And
foreign LANs can be expected to contain all kinds of hostilities.

There are hosting providers that provide you hardware, some OS
installation customized to their (unusual if not perversive) tastes and
all the Internet inbound access.

So, as I wrote - they give everyone the right tools, so anyone has it.
Using them is simple enough (some assembly required though), but as
others wrote in this thread - there are no sane defaults.
