Generous, sure.
But why invest in all the fancy firewalls, routers with firewalls, virus checkers, etc, and then bypass all that by letting some backstreet hacker have free reign to your LAN?
Most people also don't have their HD partitioned and the system folders locked down. The no of people I know who have all this stuff and then load on peer-peer programs using unsecured folders is shocking.
