Document URL: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Security_Guide/sec-Using_Firewalls.html Section Number and Name: 4.5.1.2. Understanding Network Zones Describe the issue: The current documentation for the public security zone reads: "Public For use in public areas. You do not trust the other computers on the network to not harm your computer. Only selected incoming connections are accepted." Should read: "Public For use in public areas. You trust the other computers on the network to not harm your computer. Only selected incoming connections are accepted." In other words, remove the double negative.
Hi James, I think, you're wrong. "You trust" in the home or work zone [1], not in the public zone.
