Firewall Rules for Your Social Life

When Daniel looked at his firewall rule table, he realized it described his social life perfectly: default-deny at the perimeter, permit any inside. His wife runs the inverted config — open to strangers, stateful inspection on the LAN. For two Israelis traveling abroad, that difference isn’t theoretical. This episode maps social behavior onto network security, exploring how childhood threat environments write our rules, why neither config is wrong, and what happens when two different firewalls have to share a network.
