:BoostOK: Just a friendly reminder to all developers that and configurations should be enabled by default and let the user opt-out if they understand the risks they're taking. Users should NOT have to opt-in to security and privacy when they first use your software. That is bad design and you leave your users vulnerable if they don't realize or understand it.
