From: "Paul Ranson" 

So what they're saying is that if they own your machine they can disable
the firewall?

Seems like another statement of the blindingly obvious. When are people
going to stop falling for it?

FWIW is there any firewall that the administrator or root cannot turn off?
Would it be sensible software design to disallow the machine's owner from
configuring it?
