We're not.

We provide *Internet* services.  Not "walled garden" services.

If the customer wants firewall protection, we're happy to sell it to them,
but the default package they get is "Internet".  Packets transported from
A to B and vice versa, and we're not maing their packets unhappy unless they
tell us so.
