Sorry PJ, but I can't agree with you. What's the point of having super-duper 
antiphishing features in web browsers if they were turned off by default? Why 
users should be bothered to turn them on? Those who don't want such 
antiphishing services are a minority. So they can have a little more hassle to 
turn off the features they don't need. Imagine if car producers would do as you 
suggest - latest cars with ABS, ESP, and other safety features would have them 
turned off by default. Would that improve their security? I don't think so.
These antiphishing filters are being made with a good will. Their primary 
function is to protect users. If you don't believe in it then you can check the 
source code and see if that is true or not. You can always opt-out from them so 
you always have a choice.
