@samp{--no-} prefix. This might seem superfluous---if the default for
an affirmative option is to not do something, then why provide a way
to explicitly turn it off? But the startup file may in fact change
-the default. For instance, using @code{follow_ftp = off} in
-@file{.wgetrc} makes Wget @emph{not} follow FTP links by default, and
+the default. For instance, using @code{follow_ftp = on} in
+@file{.wgetrc} makes Wget @emph{follow} FTP links by default, and
using @samp{--no-follow-ftp} is the only way to restore the factory
default from the command line.
