You post this all the time, but it's irrelevant at best and misleading 
at worst. On a default debian system these days an external firewall is 
basically a noop because there are no services listening. The attack 
vector in modern environments is much more likely to be client exploits 
(e.g., web browser) and a perimeter firewall adds zero protection from 
that threat. 

And, honestly, most people who are compromised have no clue that they 
are unless someone tells them.

Telling people that all they need to do is install a perimeter firewall 
and then they're secure is simply wrong.
